Why are Microsoft killing Windows Phone, when they have Continuum and x86-on-ARM?

Microsoft have x86-on-ARM emulation tech that they're developing so Windows 10 laptops can have ARM processors.

Microsoft also have a Windows 10 Mobile feature called “Continuum” that lets you connect a phone to a monitor, mouse and keyboard, and use it as a Windows desktop.

Why have they not noticed how these ideas can be combined, and why are they killing off the platform?
