Basically title, this thing with two editions of the game slows down development because they now have to write the same thing twice and it splits the userbase. They also don’t want to make Bedrock edition for Linux for some reason.

Pretty much. They got real aggressive at one point announcing things they were gonna roll into bedrock edition (this was around when they thought they were bringing combat update over, which never happened).
Then, all of a sudden, they pulled way back. I really got the impression they were thinking to give java the axe, only they discovered how much of a clusterfuck they were about to walk into and changed their minds. Instead suddenly the focus was on bedrock feature parity with Java (which, again technically never happened of course, cause of things like combat update).
I didn’t realize bedrock stayed with the old combat system… I honestly largely prefer that one
