That is because only recently Q1 got into where Q2 mapping stopped 20 years ago and Q1 mapping REALLY improved from there, and Q2 mapping unlike Q1 itself where even with fagweather trying to kill everything over his mental disease, is pretty much divided, and mainly now that Quadz is dead.
Plus, Q2 has everyone hating each other due to Muh MP vs Muh SP clients, you see Multiplayer maps for Q2 receiving more love and even custom tilesets than Single player maps, where no one ever gave a fuck to give Q2 its own Quakespasm with lazarus included and extended limits, and you have the retarded RTX client which is made on top of Q2Pro, and Q2pro is shit for single player quake2 as it never received proper support, Yamagi is full of autistic purists who hates lazarus support, and KMQ2 has Knightmare who made 3.24 and added Lazarus support for advanced mapping, but with zero extended limits like quakespasm.

If anything, the best Q2 mapper atm is Quakewulf, and he is still using archaic tools for it, since Q2 itself never received proper mapping support using Trenchbroom.
Only J.A.C.K. supports Q2 entirely on the same way Arghrad and Radiant had, and J.A.C.K. is a HL modding tool.
TL;DR we will never see Q2 community united ever again like in the past when PlanetQuake and Polycount was a thing https://twitter.com/polycount/status/1516865946807193601 and even if they remaster the game the same way Q1 was, people would find ways to never make it move forward out of schism and bickery.

This entire community needs a divine miracle to be united once more for the sake of mapping.
