One of my mormon uncles a former bishop, told me that mormons abandoned the cross because they didn’t want people to think they were Christians.
All one has to do is read mormon teaches and historical writings (of theirs) to see the hostility of mormons towards Christians/Catholics.
Now Christian/Catholic hostility to the Cross is just silly, never was, never will be, I guess its away to validate mormon hostility.

It appears like they've reached their goal!
