Now here's something beyond confusing. This morning, mythfilldatabase
worked flawlessly for me using the original unpatched
tv_grab_zz_sdjson grabber:

Last mythfilldatabase run started on Mon May 23 2022, 9:00 AM and
ended on Mon May 23 2022, 9:04 AM. Successful.
There's guide data until 2022-06-10 01:30:00 (18 days).

Yesterday I had only 15 days because of recent failures. I just poked
around my upcoming recordings etc and everything looks good as far as
I can see. How is that possible? Did they revert to the old backend or
something?
