Eli5 why has the chamber sealing design of the nagant revolver never been replicated in modern revolvers?

As I have come to understand, the feature prevents loss of gas between the chamber and barrel, and also allows the nagant to be suppressed. These both seem to be good things in my opinion, hence the question.

If you like interesting guns like that and finding out why they aren’t as copied in more firearms, I’d highly recommend the YouTube channel mikeburnsfire. He has 3 or 4 long videos where he and a buddy go through fallout just messing around but each time they find a different gun he talks about them, their history, and neat features.
