So why the deemphasizing of Live Spaces?

I find that strange that the Windows Live Team is not updating Spaces for Wave 3. Right now, the service is suffering from a number of issues: commentary spam, performance and the fact that Windows Live Writer should be web interface instead of this fat client that just times out every time you try to make a post to your blog. Yes, its one thing for them not to kill the service and existing Spaces, but to just to leave it hanging to create a FaceBook alternative seems like a weak desperate move that's only going to backfire. The fact that partnership between FaceBook and My Space is not included with Wave 3 says a lot about the endeavor of this new release.
