Cause of death: the autopsy

Generating SBOMs is already free: open-source generators (Syft, the CycloneDX tools) do it and a paid SBOM platform has a free tier.

The numbers

None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.

Could rise again if

The report left no way back.
