If I had to guess (other than the general comings and goings of style), it would have been related to the increasing (mandated) usage of XBRL. The visual presentation was no longer as interesting as soon as you could extract the data in a machine readable format.
Except joke is on them because XBRL and the GAAP taxonomies allows "extension concepts" or tags(1) which basically means "we can make up our own reporting identifiers and you can't do anything about it" and makes categorizing accounting data very difficult across companies.
