I was looking at ukes in a shop today and came across the Ohana CK28, a retro Nunes style concert. It has a separate fretboard which ends at the body and is flush with the top (ie its not the neck which is fretted).

Why do makers/players think this design was discontinued: what were/are the disadvantages in construction/playability compared to a modern instrument?
A search led to this thread but it doesn't answer my question:
