That said, they could just skip the time of her leaving and then Saul promising to change and taking him back. They spent a year brushing their teeth in a mirror. This would be easier.

The problem is, from a showrunner's perspective, Rhea Seehorn has KILLED it.
Pure story arc? Yeah, she's probably unnecessary at this point. Then again, Michael McKean was spectacular as well and when his arc was over, he was pretty much out. Regardless of how badly the writers would've like to have kept McKean the actor involved in the show, there was just nothing left for him to do from a story standpoint.
Kim's reached a similar phase. There's a little meat left on the bones there but she's largely done anything they need her to do if they're trying to tell the story of Saul. As badly as they'd like to keep Seehorn the actress around, they'd need to be unnecessary elongating a story arc to do it.
