It hasn't retained HDR. Just opposite. The HDR has gone, you've got 8-bit color video, which cannot be HDR, in the source's color space, which is BT.2020.
The colors may seem washed out but I like them because they are closer to the natural colors. Look at the human skin for example.
Personally, I'm entirely negative about HDR to SDR tone maping.
