No specific reasons. Nothing beyond "it was an annoying process to get it set up the way I wanted it"* and "C-language presumed bad; memory-safe-language presumed good". I did manage to get mosquitto to run according to my liking in a docker container; I can share the steps if anyone is interested -- it was just a long writeup. Now that mosquitto works and is load bearing for my Home Assistant, I haven't had enough interest in attempting to replace it. * that is: with a password and without persistence EDIT: The other one I tried was NATS-with-mqtt-compatibility, but I never got that working the way I expected either.
