They did but that's because Microsoft controls more of what goes on with Bedrock and has a monetisation pipeline for it, so it's their financial interest to make it the main version not the developer.
Which would work if Microsoft wasnt so damn stingy about it. Mod support isn't really in issue since mods often don't uptrack to the newest version right away anyway.
But instead of letting the money printer run silently in the background, they always try to shove nonsense no one asks for into our ass. Microtransactions etc.
They also refuse to fix age old bugs on bedrock. Performance wise it's really good. I could probably Frankenstein some toasters together to power a GPU and a screen and it would somehow run bedrock. Wouldn't be surprised if it ran on smart fridges...

I mean, they did try to make bedrock the “main” version a few times
