Yes, it has been solved for in the a9 III because of the global shutter.
The a1 II is apparently much improved over something like the a7RV, but there is still a drop in quality (a trade off for making 120 AF/ER calcs per second while providing blackout-free viewing at up to 30 fps).
At any rate, it bothers some people; others don't care. I found it irritating on the a7RV.
The argument that this is the price to pay for the 120Hz is definitely inaccurate, because the problem with the degradation in AF-C occurs at 60Hz. If I'm not mistaken, the search resolution is reduced at 120Hz anyway, not just during focusing.
