?? Do you think FPGA's don't go obsolete as well ?

There is a lot more to go wrong in a fpga flow, so unless
you NEED the fpga for another reason, this is not a good
basis for a decision.?

What parts have gone obsolete, and why ?

There are things you can do, to mitigate obsolescence - like
chosing multi sourced parts, and designing your code and PCBs,
so that a Physical part swap, is not a high-impact step.
