\"you guess that the reason that they not removed the move in question is because this is iconic.\"

That\'s exactly it. Hyper Beam was practically Gyarados\'s signature move in the first three generations. Adding Giga Impact to it or replacing it with Giga Impact would walk back a key part of its character.

Hyper Beam wasn\'t its signature move as per Bulbapedia – it\'s not exclusive to Gyarados and it never has been – but they\'re associated with each other more than they are with any other Pokémon or move.
