Most likely because the Mini was not a great seller. Most purchasers went for the 6" Glo that was released at the same time. Besides if you refer back to the notice that Kobo sent you as a Mini owner back in Feb. 2019 telling you the Mini was now EOL:

Kobo Mini requires a mandatory software update by February 28th, 2019.

To stay aligned with global internet security standards, we are releasing a mandatory software update for all Kobo Mini eReaders. Without this update, the Kobo Mini will no longer be able to exit the setup process after a factory reset is performed.
The wording sounds rather familiar.
