Because that's WotC and DDB rules regarding archived UA. It is available for _personal_ use. Personal use means it can be your campaigns homebrew and people playing in your campaign may use it if you activated homebrew in your campaign. You can not use the publish feature so people can't find it through homebrew search or browsing. Publishing is supposed to be for original work, definitely not for work you're copying from elsewhere.

Jander Sunstar is the thinking person's Drizzt, fight me.
For the same reason you don't sell like movie posters as your own work. Besides the moral aspect, there are legal reasons too. Not to mention terms of service, etc.
yeh my dm lets me 'homebrew' the onomancer, with that pdf. which im greatful enough for cause onomancer was my fav lol, i do hope it gets introduced again somehow in the future
I'd like to reflavor it so that ones true name is more mystical than "Greg Smith". Change the ability to compel names to trying to scry it. And give them an expanded spell list with new spells around "word" magic.
Also somewhat like magic from the Inheritance Cycle.

Could someone in simple terms, explain how the Onomancer works?
My Spells, My Races, My Magic Items, My Monsters, My Subclasses,
You know how some people will use their birthday as their email password or something?
Well in D&D, a creature's name is its existence password. Onomancers use names to hack their targets and change how their spells work on them.
that actually helped me understand it ty lol
My Spells, My Races, My Magic Items, My Monsters, My Subclasses,
I can’t even find Onomancy on here.
Yeah, it was unearthed arcana back in 2019. It has since been archived and removed from DDB.
You can think of it as true name magic. Included things like making your spells harder to resist, etc.
Yeah, was hoping to use Onomancy on Beyond. Sadly doesn't seem the case.
The PDF should still be on WotC's site. You can add it for personal use with homebrew, just don't publish it.
Why dont publish

It's basically Earthsea magic.
