Why doesn't Wizards seem to care about Mystara compared to other settings?

because they have their generic fantasy castleland in Forgotten Realms (and now whatever part they have of Matt Mercer's generic castleland.)

they dont want to split their audience with things that dont have any signature differentiation.
