It's entirely possible that they have decided that the market can't support two paid notation programs, and Sib isn't worth the development cost. Avid's homepage is currently all about Pro Tools, Wolftech, Av...

I’m curious if that direction will continue or ...

Why the different approach to grouping in m15 and 31 compared to the 8va version in m33? I prefer the m33 version so I would just use it 8ba in those other two bars, but in any case, I'd be consistent unless you have a specific reason for notating those bars differently.
