It’s just a policy. Before COVID became a thing, it made sense: airports obviously wanted slots in their schedule to be used for actual passenger flights and not just someone sitting on a bunch of unused slots. But obviously now that there’s far less demand for travel and with travel restrictions, there are less passengers, so less flights are needed to meet the demand for travel.
