There is something better by now, so why add it now?
I actually don't think this about other formats - for instance MP3 is 25 years old and I think it's just fine to support it. It's patent free and its quality limit is all you need for many applications.
This isn't true for VP8, our eyes are just harder to please. (And On2 was never the best codec developer…)
