Results of the election not changing isn't the point. It is the lack of retraction of the earlier "there was no election fraud" claim. Just because the number of missing votes found during the recount ended up not changing the outcome doesn't mean that the earlier claims of "there was no election fraud and missing votes" were correct, because they, according to the recount, are factually incorrect.
But missing votes isn’t even evidence of fraud. Could be just an error. And from my knowledge I know for a fact that at least NPR reported the change in votes and discussed it in commentary.

Important clarification, agreed, but that wasn't the point of my comment. The point was the retraction of "there are no missing votes, it is nonsense", and that is yet to happen afaik.
I wasn't aware that NPR did it already, which is good. But I am still salty that it doesn't get nearly as much attention as the initial "we know for a fact there were no missing votes despite zero evidence one way or another" from a bit more "mainstream" publications like CNN and such. But I guess I am moving the goalpost at this point, because you are correct that one of the somewhat mainstream media publications indeed retracted their earlier statement.
No one is seriously claiming that none of the elections have any errors. That would be insane; all human activity is full of errors.
What we are saying is that literally all experts and the people who run the elections themselves — from both political parties — have stated that they don’t believe that there is any organized fraud, and that any error they have isn’t significant.
The fact that several recounts didn’t change the results shows exactly that: the detected errors did not make a significant impact on the results. The election was safe to call because Biden was ahead by more than the margin of error.
There is one man who has objectively lied constantly for his entire life in the public record, who had lied about his results in polls (both political and entertainment related) his entire life, and who has repeatedly stated that he will not admit defeat. (In the past, he even called magazines under a fake name to try to convince them that he should be higher in their “richest people” rankings!) On the other side, we have literally every election official in the country across party lines.
