is there any particular reason why important settings like this aren't being added to the old preferences page?
Why would they want to keep developing for a site they're trying to do away with? Think of it from the perspective of another business, let's say video game consoles. Then substitute what you're saying.

Because PlayStation is done supporting PS2.

I like how you intentionally cropped out the first half of the question, which already addressed your point.
The question was specifically if there was ***any other reason***.
It’s not really a good analogy though. Updates to new Reddit still affect old Reddit. It’s more akin to releasing a “pro” version of an existing console, rolling out a new update that invades privacy ***to all users***, and then only letting the pro users disable it.
