If they didn't feel that newer players might have an interest in older settings, I doubt they'd be bringing so many of them back.I think WotC is ready to move on from Faerun etc. Newer players don't care about old settings, it seems to me. Might as well make something fresh without a lot of baggage.
Say what you will about the quality of the products themselves or the specific updates and changes they make to the settings, but 5e Ravenloft, Spelljammer, Dragonlance, and Planescape don't happen without a belief that there's an audience for them.
I'm by no means a big Forgotten Realms fan, but I certainly wouldn't dismiss the possibility of an FR setting guide being somewhere in the pipeline, especially in the wake of HAT and BGIII, and with a Red Wizard/Thay centric module on the schedule for 2025.
