This seems like something that authors.el > should be made aware of. First, attributions in AUTHORS don't necessarily mention files that are physically present in the repository. E.g., we don't want to ignore contributions to files that we at some point decided to remove from Emacs. In this case, it was my decision to tweak authors.el's databases so that contributions to files in merged packages, such as Eglot and use-package, will be reflected in AUTHORS even though the files to which they contributed were eventually deleted when the package was merged. Where the stuff in those deleted files was moved to other files, which do exist, I tried to redirect the attributions to the existing files. But where that was impossible or impractical, I saw no problem in having removed files referenced by AUTHORS. Eglot's README.md was deleted some time after Eglot was merged with Emacs, or maybe even before that, but the text in it is now largely in the Eglot manual, in some form or another. So having these attributions in AUTHORS makes sense to me. This is not a bug.
