All of them require rewrites, leave relevant use cases behind, at least they leave the lights running for them to still be targeted, which makes many stubborn to keep using the stuff that actually works.

Your migration from .NET Framework to .NET Core required a rewrite?
Unless you are doing low level things, I doubt. All ours library and apps survived the migration without a rewrite.
XNA (C#) => DirectXTK (C++)
C++/CX => C++/WinRT (back to ATL / Visual C++ 6.0 dev experience)
Form/WPF => UWP (.NET Native / C++/CX / WRL) => WinUI 3.0 (.NET with CsWinRT, C++/WinRT)
.NET Framework => .NET Core
