The experiments use of the velocity vector is to determine the speed. There's no speed radar for light, so they establish two points and time how long the light takes to cover the distance. They simply determine what speed was necessary.
So if the same instrumentation is used under the same conditions today, there should be no reason for the speed of light to change. It should be constant.
Seeing how the claim of light speed decrease directly relates to the velocity measured, there can be only two reasons (provided same conditions are met etc), firstly that the speed of light has in fact changed; secondly, that the distance has changed.
Under universe expansion theories which are widely supported. The universe is able to expand proportionally which doesn't necessitate accumulating more "non space" region, or literally 'extending' the perimeter.
I only learned about the light speed changes during a physics lecture in class.
