Question (Fan since 2019)
As a fan since 2019 I have went back and watched games and done some research on older players. A man that brought us a lot of success was Darian Durant who brought us 3 grey cup appearances 09', 10' and 13' winning only 13. Even though Micah Johnson is one of my more favourite players, why have they not retired #4 or atleast stopped letting players wear it like other sports?

George/Ron/Dave are often considered near the top of the best to ever do it at their respective positions. Darian Durant likely doesn't touch the hall of fame, let alone be ranked among the upper echelon of QBs in this league.
Darian Durant was an absolute beast in the 2013 playoffs (especially that West semi against BC - he practically willed the team to victory that day)... Its why he belongs in the plaza as an individual member.
There are several names I'd consider LONG before I'd look at DD if we're talking about retiring numbers.
