I think it's just the trade-off of both designs. Haveno is decentralized, but requires a deposit. LocalMonero was convenient but easy to take down because it was centralized and operators were known.
I suggest just leaving the deposit on Haveno so you don't need to find some Monero every time you want to use it. And you can take it back any time you want anyway.

I think it would be cool if someone brought back something like LocalMonero, but Tor-only. That would at least make it harder to take down (maybe implement optional multi-sigs too?). It would just have to build trust with the community over time similar to DNMs. Would help those who need to get their first Monero for the deposit, or those who value the convenience more.
