Probably because arthur went from a young man who dreamed of becoming the king and bringing peace and prosperity to the land to becoming a powerhungry madman who lied to his people. He also  ignored his wife and wanted to take vengeance on Merlin while not even seeing the symbolic broken sword as the powerfull metafor it could be. He could have shown it to the people and explained that just as he would reforge the sword (with a regulair part)and complete the sword so would he not have rested untill he had reforged the kingdom and made it whole again.He is probably not worthy for the sword anymore that being because of him using the sands of avalon on his wife and lying to his people for so long Arthur is no longer worthy of the sword. It would be fun and sweet if emma just works in taking vengeance on arthur for enslaving her parents on the agenda before snuffing out the light (which still sounds supercool might i add).
