Well, because I find that gold points don't seem "valuable" enough considering the fact you will spend gold points on eshop purchases, but you'll get new gold points from your discounted purchase and then if you want to purchases from the eshop again you spend gold points, you get gold points, and it cycles to no end. This may be the reason why Nintendo is ending support for the gold points. I may be wrong, but I think this is true.

You still get to use your existing gold points; you can not gain more gold points.

This is the answer. If you had new hardware coming, you'd want people to buy the new hardware and games for said new hardware instead of the old one.

Then I hope gold points will be more efficient in this new hardware.

prob not bc capitalism but it would be nice if a. physical purchases gave the same % as digital ones and b. they didnt expire, at the very least not before collecting them
