Yes, the documentary did take a handful of scenes and spent a TON of money remastering them for that movie. In fact, I believe the majority of their budget (crowd sourced mostly) was for that purpose, and they were able to do additional scenes due to getting more money than they expected. But that was a one-off project by the team behind DS9. It doesn't change the facts or the economics.
TNG was significantly easier to remaster in HD because of the way it was filmed. DS9 used a newer (and short lived) method, as well as incorporating the special effects into the print, which means to redo all that would be insanely expensive. A high multiplier of TNG's price. It would take a lot of time, money and effort. Something Paramount is unlikely to see worthwhile.
While personally DS9 was one of my favorite of all the OG series', its fan base is a small fraction of TNG. The latter was a 'core' Star Trek show that almost everyone has watched at some point and would watch again. The viewership numbers for DS9 are significantly lower and more akin to a show for Trekkies. On top of that, Paramount only cares about profit. They would need to believe that enough people would purchase a special edition blu-ray release (etc) to recoup any costs in remastering the show. We're not talking about maybe 10-15 minutes of cherry picked footage done by people who love the show because they made it. We're talking about ~45 minutes per episode and something like 180 episodes. That's almost 8000 minutes of video. It's likely they would need to sell tens of millions of dollars of remastered BRs, etc. to recoup that cost. I don't think they believe that is possible, and I can't really blame them.
Don't get me wrong, I wish they would. I'd pay money and buy them if they did. But the odds of it happening are probably lower than Quark running a free drink special at his bar.

I backed the documentary back in the day for a few hundred, which got me access to the West Coast premier, where I got to meet a few cast, including my all time favorite Garak/Andrew Robinson. Some of the best money I've ever spent.
