There are three main problems with this decision to back away from UCP transitioning:


 * The platform will eventually support features that you might miss out on, especially with the next few updates that are coming soon.
 * Even if you didn’t want to transition, the website’s current architecture will be lost, therefore making it difficult to reverse the change
 * Speaking of which, the transition is meant to bring new life into the MediaWiki architecture for Fandom users. If you (and other users) prevented the change, you would be stuck with a years old platform that lost support years ago.

In shorter terms, I’m mainly saying that you shouldn’t base your view on a single problem, especially when more features will eventually transfer over to the new platform.
