I have come across what me and a developer believe to be a spigot issue. When taking into account advancements, there are the player achieved ones and apparently also hidden crafting ones that I would not have known were advancements unless I came to this particular conclusion. When disabling the minecraft advancements using the spigot.yml node for doing so, it disables player-achieved ones, but not crafting ones. So to my knowledge, there are ~900 crafting achievements that are let pass even though the entire default minecraft story is disabled. This is an extreme hinderence, as trying to use this plugin to count AdvancedAchievements only is near impossible, as crafting advancements persist without a way to disable them.

The developer has cited this as a similar bug; https://hub.spigotmc.org/jira/browse/SPIGOT-5700

"Each recipe indeed has an advancement associated with it. But one would expect that disabling all 'minecraft' advancements disables [the crafting hidden advancements] as well. This not happening seems like a bug to me, and I think we should report a new bug on the Spigot issue tracker."

The entire issue is documented here, on this github bug report to the developer;
