They didn't really "kill" CSGO, though. You can still play it. Just no matchmaking.

Asking people to give up their skins in CSGO and go to a new game was never going to happen. Instead they made a patch and generated hype for the game as a new name, while supporting Source 1 servers. To think that if they didn't do a name change, people wouldn't be whining so much.
