The reason for not releasing the entire task set at release probably just had to do with a lack of content as area tasks are supposed to reflect the content in an area. When task sets were developed over the years, they were developed for regions that aleady existed and had plenty of content in them. The ones that had task sets on release that were recent weren't so much area tasks but rather reputation systems tied to a specific area. Jagex has tried multiple approaches to them, and while they are important for the exploration of the game, they are also really hard to make since as content gets added and changes, the tasks themselves get outdated and don't show content to be up to date. I'm glad that they are back to the old system however since it's very important for the exploration of areas and mechanics for players (like the karamja diary teaching you about pets that came with summoning)
This is a great point. I never did like menophos(? I think I spelt that right) because I always thought the rep system was super grindy and not in the runescape charm type of way. I do love that it is back to a traditional area tasks system. I do wonder if this is Um's final form since all the area tasks sets were included. I suppose with the sanctum bosses that'll be the final pieces of Um's area "storyline"
