We can't do that; they are two different languages, though closely
related and intertwined in use  It would be like deprecating nds in
favor of de-northern.

And fy-DE could never have been more than a hack like zh-TW for zh-Hant:
is it North Frisian, or is it Saterfrisian aka East Frisian (not to be
confused with the variety of nds also called "East Frisian", still less
with the variety of Standard German (de) spoken in Ostfriesen)?
