Because the mv command doesn't really know anything more than the destination directory you have specified. If you want to preserve the underlying directory structure, why not try something like:
1) find command to find all files with mtime +14
2) tar command to create a tarball of the files along with path structure. You can also have tar remove the old files as you build the tarball
3) mv the tarball to the root where you want to reconstruct the directory structure/file data
4) tar command to recreate the archive
There are probably more efficient/cleverer ways of handling file archiving to achieve the end result you want, but by using find, then tar, you have a lot of flexibility in terms of how you want to handle the old data.

ipescript
IPESCRIPT(1) General Commands Manual IPESCRIPT(1)NAME
ipescript - Run an Ipe script (written in Lua)
SYNOPSIS
ipescript script { arguments }
DESCRIPTION
ipescript runs an Ipe script written in Lua. The Ipe bindings are automatically available in the script. Ipescript looks for the script
in any of the script directories.
The script argument should not contain the .lua extension.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
ipescript respects the following environment variables:
IPELATEXDIR
the directory where ipetoipe runs Pdflatex.
IPESCRIPTS a list of directories where Ipescript will look for
scripts. When this variable is not set, Ipe searches first the current directory, then ~/.ipe/scripts, and finally the system-wide
Ipe script directory. When this variable is set, it should contain a list of directories, separated by semicolons. A single under-
score is replaced by the system-wide Ipe script directory.
IPEDEBUG
set this to 1 for debugging output from ipescript.
