Yes, I ask that question about almost anything that google releases. I believe there are web site that contain lists of all of the app that google has released and then abandoned over the years. But speaking of Google Wave, it is funny to see all of the programs like MS Teams that have incorporated so many of the concepts that Wave offered to the public.

I wonder if it will last any longer than Google Wave did?

I stopped trusting Google after they killed Google Reader. Google has a lot of great ideas that go nowhere! I was tempted by Google Wave because I thought it had some really good ideas but I stopped myself .... once burned was enough for me. And I was right!

I read somewhere that glory and promotions in Google are very much driven by releasing new products. There is no glory or promotion for maintaining current products. If so, it is hardly surprising that they keep coming up with new products and then abandoning them.

I think it's more that given that over 90% of Google's revenue comes from advertising, their modus operandi has been to expand into areas for limited periods, while never admitting it, in a throw-spaghetti-at-the-wall approach to see what sticks (is popular, profitable, sticky to users, and generates needed data).
Much of it doesn't and in those cases they cull ruthlessly. They can afford to build fiber in cities, or try deploying W-Fi blimps in Africa, or attempt multiple email redesigns, or sell smart speakers and routers, because that's how the company is built to act. They'd rather offer services for 2 years than not offer them at all. Netflix is even more remorseless in its decision-making: the algorithm is king.
Google will continue to throw that pasta until their ad revenue declines. That time could be measured in years, as the European Union seems slowly but surely heading to declare Google's Real Time Bidding (RTB) system as ignoring GDPR protections.
