They have to pay people to moderate it, also they have to intergrate it into every game. Given how certain social platforms can quickly turn toxic, which can be a bigger risk to Nintendo's rep then just the technical issues involved with making Miiverse work. I can understand not bringing it back in its current form and just letting people post directly to those platforms.
But as others have stated, they are regressing in terms of communication between which is worst because you still have 'Friends' and such but with the increased base of players unless you know them already or communicate with other platforms you can't. Which may have been the plan all along to keep stranger danger out of the eco system but it is incovient for those that wouldn't apply to.
