Antibody response peaked at approximately 4 weeks, waned to levels seen before the fourth dose by 13 weeks, and stabilized thereafter. Throughout the 6-month follow-up period, the adjusted weekly levels of IgG and neutralizing antibodies were similar after receipt of the third and fourth doses and were markedly higher than the levels seen after receipt of the second dose

But it's not a vaccine if it has to be renewed every three months is it? Shouldn't it be called a treatment?

There's nothing here that deviates from what we already knew. The same was true with the third booster, and will be the same with any fifth booster.
This is exactly what you'd expect. Your body produces a strong immune reaction in response to the influx of spike protein from the booster. Once the spike protein are all gone your body winds down it's immune response.
This takes maybe 2-4 months depending on the individual.
The purpose of the booster is to keep your body at a high response level for an extended period of time, not to create a "forever response", because that's simply not how your body does these things. When the threat diminishes so does the response to the threat.
It's worth noting that this is exactly how things are with natural immunity and OG covid.
