My guess is to ensure Silent Hill is its own unique existence, not ended up known as "Resident Evil without explosions and rocket launcher".
Otherwise they would just announced it as Silent Hill V alongside remake like how VIIIage followed after RE remake, but they played it safe with "f" seems aware it would be unwise to not test the water and expand the setting while they can.
