I'm not one of the original authors, however I suspect that is because if
you are using pipelines-as-code they generally expect folks to clone/copy
the original pipeline yaml/json/groovy rather than use an alternate
representation via the UI, so it possibly wasn't a priority.
The Admin > Pipelines tab does allow you to download/export to a different
pipeline-as-code format, or as you say, you can use the APIs to get the API
JSON representation.
For what it's worth you *can* fetch artifacts from the result of one
templated pipeline into another templated pipeline, but generally you need
to parameterise the upstream pipeline's *fetch path* from the downstream
pipeline template. In other words, when you create an instance of
downstream-pipeline from the template and you want to fetch from
upstream-pipeline3 you would set the parameter of "upstream-pipeline-name"
to "upstream-pipeline3". The fetch task inside the downstream-pipeline
template would have the pipeline value set to #{upstream-pipeline-name} and
otherwise hard-code the stage/job fetails to match the upstream template.
