As per John Mueller, users can be confused about the keywords listed in content keywords feature so that is why they have decided to eliminate the Content Keywords feature in Search Console.

Furthermore, John Mueller said that “While our systems have gotten better, they can't read your mind: be clear about what your site is about, and what you'd like to be found for. Tell visitors what makes your site, your products and services, special!”
