OLM knew what they were doing by cancelling the ashnime which is one of TV Tokyo's 5 most profitable franchises, the ashnime is sold to ~100 countries worldwide, to different platforms and channels to air.
If it was about the profits/ratings, OLM would have just rebooted Ash.
This new anime will realistically never achieve even remotely similar network sales so it's really aimed only at Japan, if they were going for an international audience they would have kept Ash in one format or another.
The new anime is about creative freedom, not about ratings. OLM has so much money from the ashnime that they can afford to do whatever they want to
