Totally right. But few legacy applications still use jquery. Also WordPress uses JQuery a lot. Myself was working in WordPress few months back and used jquery.

It's also used for small animations in static sites. But recent css and js tweaks are lowering this probability also.

Yes, unfortunately, but WordPress without jQuery would be a mess! So let's stick with JQuery there 😂
