Trust me, they can easily find out about all emulators that exist. All that matters is if they see some advantage in shutting the project down.
There is nothing inherently wrong with emulators though. It just does what it's told. The game images are a different story.
And yuzu provided instructions on how to dump encryption keys to get those game images. If they just let other sites provide that info and only provided the reverse engineered emulator then they would have been in the clear like every other emulator for the past several decades.
