Is it possible that someone fitted a smaller front sprocket to do just this? - the budget/quick way to fitting a larger rear as the front costs less, is easier to fit and doesn't require a new chain. This obviously then leaves the chain slacker and although there should be plenty of adjustment, it does require someone to actually adjust it.

Also a smaller front sprocket puts more torque/load onto the chain, making any wear/stretch more pronounced...
Oh yes, that's certainly a possibility.

I use DID the ZVMX version
... this or the EK MVXZ ...

I like the Tsubaki chains but they have a solid link so are a pig to fit unless you have a whale tool.
