Mojang/Microsoft actually releases obfuscation maps for Minecraft: Java since 2019. This maps the decompiled random class names to the official variable/class names used by Mojang devs.

As others have said, Java is pretty easy to decompile, so there were community maintained obfuscation maps before (huge amount of work).
Great addition! Thanks. So they did actually help with modding but only eventually it seems.
