Default Loose exhaust bolts?

So I just installed my oil cooler today and while the car was on the lift I took the opportunity to admire the underbody of the car and happened upon a rather shocking revelation.

The bolts between the pipe and stock barrel (last bit before the tips) were almost completely unscrewed. Is this osmething that can occur through vibrations? Anyone else notice this over time?

I'm hoping this was just incompetence from the dealership rather than something I need to be worried about over time... It explains why I thought my exhaust sounded more aggressive recently
