Honestly I'm glad they're no longer supporting UA. Hopefully it means they can actually start implementing variant rules from the DMG which was brought out 7 yeas ago.
Well it's not like UA work was always wasted time. Usually it was pretty much the same work they were going to have to do for upcoming releases and they just had to tweak it when it was officially released. If anything, no UA could mean that we see even more delays between the time official content comes out and when we see it in DDB.
I see it more as a "measure twice, cut once situation"
Either they could publish it once and then later tweak it after the release OR just publish it once after the release (with all changes accounted for before any work was done).
Its true this may delay that book's content being implemented, but needing to implement UA AND the extra work it takes to tweak it later delays other updates to the site.
Either way, something is getting delayed. But publishing the final product is objectively less work that publishing+tweaking, therefor less overall delay for the site as a whole.

Unfortunately, the answer is no. Looks like i'm spending the day homebrewing.
Never.
D&D Beyond aren't doing UA anymore.

What! Did they mention why?
There are a number of threads regarding DDB's decision to no longer support UA when it was announced over two months ago. Start here.
