"The reason the old format is being retired is becuse it's "outdated" to which I say no."

As a professional web developer for 3+ years and a Wikia/Fandom editor for close to 8, I can safely say that you are completely wrong on this. There is a TON of vulnerability in staying on an old and outdated platform for too long, and the current MediaWiki framework is much better and much more secure than what Fandom is currently using.

There are a few things in the UCP that I'm not crazy about, but this is by far the best and most welcome change being made to the platform for a long, long time.
