If they were gonna use MySQL I have to imagine they would have used it already. If they're using MariaDB they're probably using features that aren't in MySQL โ either that or they want to avoid Oracle. Also, migrating Maria databases and codebase to MySQL is not as straightforward as you might think.
Anyway... MariaDB is not dead yet, no need to speculate that far ahead.
