Yes, that's what's going on. We've made this decision because in most
cases, text inside parentheses is either a translation, which we handle
separately, or not actually part of the name, as in this case.

Our render used to respect the disused tag, but this feature got lost in
some reshuffling. We have updates in the works that will re-add it make
cases like this more clear, but still avoid the extra data tacked onto the
label.

Then why does way 164845193 (Old Street Magistrates Court (closed)) have
an old label? It is because your renderer is removing "superflous" words like
"(closed)" ?

MapBox Streets is updated every few minutes. I've seen it in action :)

We update every 5 minutes or so*, what makes you say this is over 12 months
old?

*Except for coastlines, admin boundaries, and admin labels.

Okay, so it's mapbox, any idea how often they update their data? It seems
the data is over 12 months old. Not the best way to showcase how quick
it is to update the maps they are rending.

It looks more like Mapbox Streets rendering.

Here's a quick screenshot of Mapbox Streets at zoom level 17 for comparison:
