That's not a failure, it was just never finished.
And more because of personal matters than anything technical. I'm not sure why this is relevant.
Of course it was relevant. If they had a better game engine it would have been further along.
The article you yourself linked says the game's development troubles were from pressure to surpass their previous game which was a smash hit.
How would a better engine fix that?
They didn't need "a better game engine" to create Celeste.
