There's a very sad reason for that.
You see Miyamoto is planning on stepping down in the near future. Remember when everyone thought Miyamoto was retiring? The whole world thought Nintendo was "dooooomed"! Because of this he's been "preparing" developers for his leave. In other words he's been telling people what to do a lot more than he used to. This has lead to a lot of unpleasing results.
People are finally able to see that Miyamoto isn't as great as everyone made him out to be. That all those great ideas weren't his alone and he shouldn't get all the credit for the things we love.
Miyamoto has been hellbent on streamlining and whitewashing the Mario series because he wants to make sure future developers handle the series the way he wants them to be handled in the future. The only problem is Miyamoto comes from a different generation of video games, simple basic things void of any depth or art.
Luckily we have people like Yoshiaki Koizumi trying to do his own things with the series. Even being sneaky around Miyamoto, inserting things without his permission. So I have faith.
