Maybe they're incompetent lackwits who's management bamboozled WOTC into buying a product they can no longer update.  Maybe, just maybe, they're making plans and working on things that have not seen the light of day and may not for quite some time.  Perhaps they're waiting for the 2024 release decisions before they implement massive changes.  We just don't know and rather than assume the worst, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.  <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="🤷‍♂️" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f937-2642.png" title="Man shrugging    :man_shrugging:" data-shortname=":man_shrugging:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" />Now excuse me, I have to go create character #60* because the game I'm playing in is wrapping up it's current campaign soon and I want another option depending on what everyone else is bringing to the table for the next one.*In my defense my wife uses my account as well, so some of them are hers.</blockquote>
