You know, while a TON of people (including me) appreciated the work that went into the event it must suck for Epic's employees to have worked on this with limited resources at home only to have it make the "bRiNg bAck oLd MaP!11!!!!" complaints even more popular.
It's a bad look on the BR community when parts of it are so significantly entitled that not even a year after they got their shiny new map (That they asked for RELENTLESSLY for multiple seasons), they're already bored of it and want the old one too.
But let's hypothesize for a bit. Let's say the old map DOES get added back in. Congrats! The player base has now effectively been cut in half. People already complain about having to wait a few minutes to queue up for a match - imagine that, but twice as long.
And that's not all - you know those cool events like the Travis Scott concert? Gone or at least drastically reduced in scale. Why? Because these massive live events the game is famous for rely HEAVILY on there being one, unified map for all players to roam around in.
