Yes, having to admit that there is no future in a OS you do like, and
moving to an OS you do not, simply to make a living, must be a a major
de-motivator.
But you have always been reluctant to do chargeable upgrades for RISC OS.
Are there enough changes you could port back into RO to appease your
conscience about making an upgrade charge, and are there enough RO users
left and willing to pay a charge to make it worth your while?
