This is quite an oversimplification. Some modules have no active maintainers and take time from the small team that work on CPython. Some modules are deprecated and removed to make it possible to allocate time on other improvements, and they went back on some removals when users came forward showing that they were still needed.
There is some discussion about the rationale at https://peps.python.org/pep-0594/#rationale https://peps.python.org/pep-0594/#rationale
