I would love to see a new one with this form factor, but with the incredible newer screen that's on the Kobo Libra 2.

They're definitely old now, which is why you can sometimes find deals on them used because people will price them based on the age of the device instead of it's functional value in this weird frozen-in-place e-reader market.
Inversely, there are a lot of overpriced Aura Ones because enthusiasts often DO know that it's still competitive and will try to get used Forma prices knowing some people prefer the form factor.
But I disagree about the "clunky" characterization. I couldn't help but feel the opposite when I picked the KA1 back up after using the Sage. I can only imagine how the long-term Forma owners who switched over felt.
