The show runners for The Expanse claimed that they ended the show where they did because the show had reached a natural conclusion, the books took a giant time leap, and they felt the rest of the story would be better developed into a sequel series at a later time.

I really hope they work out a way to do a time jump series later on with the same actors who are all actually older (though logistically speaking it would be difficult)

Well, IIRC, the next phase of the story has mostly different characters. Only one or two carry over.

From what I remember most of the main cast carry over except for

Tap for spoilerAvasarala who died because old

It’s a 3 decade time jump

Tap for spoilerEven Avasarala is there for the first part of it. She died after Duarte took over.

Oh you mean Holden, Naomi, Amos, Alex, Bobbie, Clarissa, Ghost of Miller, and Avasarala?

Honestly, I think they did the right thing. The TV show was great for what it was, but the last book was just so different than the rest of the series, I don't think it really matters that they left it out.

End the show on a high note instead of possibly spoiling it.
