I’m betting chicken always could have cooked faster.
A few months ago my mother bought a free range chicken for lunch. It took over twice the ordinary time needed for cooking a chicken. The difference was massive and obvious, no way is there an another explanation.
They just used to overcook chicken.
Do you look at the old pictures (photos, paintings) of food and see overcooked chicken?
Burning the outside is visible. Over cooking meat definitely is not visible, unless you way, way, over cook it. A pork loin cooked to 145f can look almost exactly like one cooked to 170f from the outside.

You can look at a 100 year old picture and tell if it was cooked to over 165f?
Is overcooking not visible?
