They stopped developing it because it's precisely very far away from being finished and it would bring back very little benefits (if any) to Mozilla if they did invest more in it. I used to love Thunderbird, but that was when my PC was connected to a 4:3 screen and the best alternative to it was Evolution. It's a pathetic experience on 16:9 screens, not to mention all the plugins and extras (that tend to break a lot between versions) that are required to implement some functionality that is present in other decent email clients (like calendar, google sync, conversation view, etc). Most software is never "finished". If development stops it usually means something is wrong or people have moved on to other alternatives or technologies.
The addons are why it's a finished product, you add in only the functionality that you need and don't add in the bloat you don't. Adding every possible feature to a single application is a recipe for a total and complete disaster.

working with multiple windows in gnome shell
Can some who knows how to use the gnome shell let me know how to work with multiple windows at the same time? For example I am watching a stream in a browser and taking notes in a vim. Is this possible in the gnome shell?

You can drag and resize windows via your mouse. Or via shortcuts. The super key with arrow key is the default. If you want to change this setting: open dconf Editor below org → gnome → mutter → keybindings
Workspace settings and other settings are below org → gnome → mutter.
As notes taking app gnote is currently my favourite.
