With comics going back to renumbering you would think Astonishing would merge with the last volumes

Probably partially because they want to promote this as an individual, not-heavy-on-continuity story. Counting it in with previous runs would undermine the pitch of one big Charles Soule story.
And, also, partially because as word of mouth spreads it'll be easier for people to figure out how to catch up; they'd just have to go back to issue 1.
Maybe since it's already been declared a maxi series, they aren't going to renumber it? I don't really know
The remembering is rumored not to last so probably is pointless to remember this one since as stated it's a maxi series
X-Men Forever
Each issue is going to have a different artist and it is only going to last 12 issues. So they probably didn't see the need to renumber it for that.
