I'd say it probably has more to do with the fact that if they turned him back into a kid they wouldn't be able to do certain things with him. And it would be odd anyway since Damian isn't a kid anymore either.

They obviously don't want to deal with little kids, and they want Jon and Damian to be older, so they can do more with them. That's why they didn't deage Jon despite the fact, that they were undoing some controversial decisions from previous regime, and claimed, that they're listening. And that's the same reason why Damian keeps getting older, he's already fifteen in Batman and Robin, if I'm not mistaken.
Jon is a teen but he's SuperMAN. Kara is an adult but she's SuperGIRL. Conner is at least as old as Jon but he's SuperBOY. Make it make sense
Amazing how hard DC has failed this character. At this point they clearly don’t even care at all about him and are just letting Taylor do what he wants while they focus on Clark to prep for Legacy. I think the only way to fix Jon is to kill him off and then do a radical revamp of him once he returns after keeping him dead for a while. Frankly though, I’d rather they focus on building up other members of the Superfamily like Kenan, Kara, and Kon.

I say the exact opposite is true. Keeping him aged up and as Superman is incredibly limiting and does not allow for any future stories because where else is the character supposed to go. DC artificially reached the end of the character before he even got his start.
Making him a kid again would actually allow them to do a lot more with the character, especially with him being bisexual, and they can keep in their back pocket him being older and Superman if they wanted to pull that trigger but that can only happen in the very, VERY far future.
He's 14. He's still a kid.And it would be odd anyway since Damian isn't a kid anymore either.
I swear the only people that say he's 15 are here and on Reddit who aren't even fans of him in the first place.
Longer. He debuted in 2015, got aged up in 2018, so generously we had 3 years of kid Jon. 2019-2023 is 4 years, meaning Jon being a kid is now the weird aberration in terms of the character’s history. They won’t be deaging him, if anything Damian will get aged up, especially since the real world actor who plays DCU Damian is unlikely to be a little kid.
