Based on a search of the Summary of Outcomes documents, it appears that no individual languages have been reclassified as macrolanguages since 2012 (Nepali and Oriya, now Odia), and that no brand-new macrolanguage code elements have ever been created since the inception of the ISO 639-3 annual review cycles in 2006.

All macrolanguage-related changes since then have been to members of a macrolanguage (i.e. encompassed languages): adding them, removing them, or reclassifying their Scope from Active to Retired.

A better analysis would be to scan the 639-3 code set files programmatically, looking for changes in the Scope field of existing alpha-3 code elements from “I” to “M”.
