When VP9 rolled out they talked about how delivering video to people with decent spec machines but terrible connectivity was a sweet spot where VP9 increased the amount of video watched. I'd guess they've run the numbers and they get more benefit from encoding the lower sizes in AV1 so that's what they prioritize.
