They did not decide not to, they very much want to but are unable to
because, so far, they have not been able to negotiate a license for the
needed CF designers from the Visual Studio team at MS (it is apparently the
VS team that owns the particular items needed).

No doubt Borland could build their own CF designer from scratch, but that
would take a lot of time and money and slow down progress in other areas, so
it makes much more sense to use the MS designers (as they already do for
Winforms).
