Except for the Staging Area all of the other open world missions seem to be gone.
Is this a mistake or a bug? Will they becoming back?

Nope. There still there.
I'm talking about the mission where your Captains need to gather things or scan thing or fight rogue groups of Romulans or Tholians to move towards a percent of a mission accomplished. The Open Missions.

Good?
The Romulan recommendation missions (instanced) are still there but will not automatically pop up. You will have to complete (or skip) all missions before it (up to and including Borg Advance) before you can talk to the RomRep representative in your base and only then can you start them (Warning, before you do this, the introductory 5-minute cutscene, unskippable, will always play). They will probably not all pop up, go to the mission journal or talk to the quest giver directly then. Also, Warehouse is no longer optional as it was three or so years ago.
The prerequisite missions need to be done first, so helping out in staging area before warehouse, tagging Nanev somewhere inbetween, collecting plants in the Paehhos crater before you can go to the cave and so on. They move towards 100%, but are not random and can be repeated if you like, though I think there is a cooldown on them (never personally bothered).
The Red Alerts are random missions, insect attack on staging base, Tholian attack in Hwael, moving Nanev towards mother etc. They also get towards 100% and will usually be indicated by a Red Alert warning in the "minor interaction" corner plus a popup. Last time I was on New Rom to get my Jemmies the rep they were still up and running but doomed to fail since (almost) nobody cares for them.
I was specifically looking at the Atlai to scan nanovs and also at Hwael Ruins to scan ruins and place scanners on the landscape. The researchers that formerly provided those missions (30 minute cooldown) no longer provide after RTFO went live / Cryptic reorganized the mission journal.
Other delta level ~43 which had finished the line inc. the TFO but not a single rep, can't get those AND couldn't get the daily epoh quest.
Those delta were ofc pre-AoD but since AoD played very non standard way. still, the problem presents for multiple players.
No matter what I do the mission below are not and do not become available.

The Staging Area is the only Open Area Mission still available.
Alerts pop up some times, as they always have.
l don't know.
l really don't know what l'm about to say, except l have a feeling about it.
That l must repeat the words that come without my knowledge.'
The only exception I've found is the only character I've checked on that had already done them before the journal was moved around.
Not for my two deltas who had finished the NR line after AoD but without having t5 rep yet (one has t4 and other bellow 50 has no rep. yes I knew I would likely have to do some quests again, meant to explore with my deltas, but I didn't mean to ruin chars making some quests unreachable)
I am not very pleased with that streamline it made things messed up.
P.S.
Just like installation 18, it IS a bug. and it affects multiple players.
The game has been one huge bork fest since the mission journal streamlining and AoD launch.
Sure if you haven´t done the missions. After you do them, they are gone. The same like the Wasteland Missions.
They are not gone, I thought so too, but when you reach lvl 50 when your rep is unlocked they become available in your available mission tab. It makes sense because before age of discovery you didn't get the new rom storyline until you were lvl 50. So just wait until lvl 50 and you will be able to do them.
Beside, we weren't informed T5 is needed for those DAILIES. What else is new?
P.S.
I am unsure this is the issue and that it will solve once it's T5. We also were not informed how SPECIFICALLY to play this/"how to not ruin the chars" and if it breaks the chars (unknown yet) so easily, I think it would be really bad. Time/T5 will tell, though.
As for my bellow level 50 char who had finished the line, TFO at no rep (due to level), fair point, would wait with that char.
I fear there is a bug though. (If it's not a bug, it's a new annoyance for my level 65 char for example. No it's not by NPC/available for that char.)
This doesn't explain though why none of my characters besides my DSC has them in their available tab. My main's also been working through the TFO assignments for completion's sake, nothing in my available tab and nothing at the NR contacts.
(There's a bug thread on this issue, Cryptic appears to be looking into it. Could be a problem similar to what happened with Installation 18. IE. updating the mission journal didn't give everyone the episode permissions they were supposed to have..)
Notable missions: Apex [AEI], Gemini [SSF], Trident [AEI], Evolution's Smile [SSF], Transcendence
Looking for something new to play? I've started building Foundry missions again in visual novel form!
Clarification:
I am sorry if I confused anybody with my reaction to the OTHER thread regarding installation 18 - I only ASKED them to look for that (this NR issue of missing quests) too. This sadly doesn't mean they are looking at this NR issue, OFC. I don't know if there is any linkage but I had this association too, and thought there might be. Either way, both are quests which went broken (for some/me) as AoD hits.

I recently started another Dil farmer RomKlink, and even he got the intro cutscene to New Rom (makes a good opportunity to go and make a coffee) and he now has all of the Romulan missions in his journal ... At level 10!!!
However, on another alt, who finished the Rom Rep about 2 years ago, and who had also completed (multiple times) all the missions on New Rom, had a completely blank card in the journal when it came to New Rom, (along with several other "relocated" story arcs) no skip, no hail, nothing, just the mission name. Until she sat through the intro cutscene again (while I made a coffee) Then suddenly about 10 "Accolades" popped, and the mission journal opened up a lot more, with 'most' missions now replayable ... Not sure if that will be the case for everyone though.
My chars differ in behavior, you are both right for self's char, I guess. But there IS an issue, and a very prevalent one, it seems, even if it doesn't affect all chars in all situation.
I saw a char which has those and can replay - a very old romulan char I presume. though it's now on T4.
I have other chars which can't get those no matter how.
P.S.
Also having a non unified behavior regarding site to site transport in NR - though this is not new, it may likely be linked to changes which were done to the line/zone (inserting/removing parts or missions to line/zone (or wrapper) is not a good idea IMO, one way or another) and how and when chars were played, possibly. Chars are almost unplayable on NR and either have enough rep or will likely seek NR rep elsewhere / stall NR rep raising after finishing the line
The Rep Stories (which contain some missions) or the Open World Ones (Atlai, Vastam Peak etc.?)
If you have access to all transporter pads it should work. But I´m not sure currently if its only the pads or the pads and rep on tier 5. Haven´t used the site to site transport for a while.

*Speculation post.
Also I discovered today that those annoying dialog replay buttons can be made to go away by completing the associated mission. Which is annoying, but at least it's a way to make them stop being there.
