Having two features with the same purpose being worked on simultaneously is nonsensical and only leads to both features' worsening. Keeping both would come at the cost of noticeable improvements in both cases. So it's better for the developers to invest their time into maintaining one viable feature.

And besides this, the Forum's code is simply incompatible with the UCP. Even if it were to be renewed, problems would threaten to arise with continuing MediaWiki updates. Unfortunately, the Forum is too great of a burden when it comes to having Fandom be up-to-date.
