So this came up with this user a few days ago, and apparently ð fell out of use later in Old English and its usage was merged into þ for hundreds of years.
That is mentioned in the Wikipedia article, but given the fact that þ also hasn’t been used for hundreds of years, I think it would make sense to re-adopt both letters to distinguish between the sounds (though accents will probably make things confusing)

I remain unconvinced.
If you read þe Wikipedia article on eth, it explains þe history; I didn’t make it up.
