change node "Authored by" does not change any uid of the revision table

Problem/Motivation

Change "Authored by" when editing a node change the uid of the node table but not the revision_uid of any revision on the revision table
Is that uid on the node table the initial version uid ?
that uid is contradictory with the initial revision or the last revision of the revision table depending what that node table uid shall be

I am struggling with the purge_users module that delete unexpected content.
i have the impression $user->delete in that module delete associated content depending on the initial revision uid , no matter if the author has been changed using the procedure below

Steps to reproduce

Create a content
Edit the content and change the "Authored by"
Notice that regarding uids , table node_field_data has changed but not the node_revision table
