That’s like asking why this tractor trailer truck still uses the same old boring shipping containers from 40 years ago.

My point is that most people in 2025 are expecting a lot more from their communications client than what was available in the "good old days" of Gtalk and FB interoperability, and yet most XMPP advocates just bury their heads in the sand and say "it works for me and does everything I need, so there is no reason to add more features".
