Especially when FTP and HTTP performance is basically comparable and will depend more on the network and storage than the protocol.

Have we gotten to the point where anything not HTTP is considered old?

never mind that most "API" are JSON (or some such) delivered over (S)HTTP anyways.

But yes, anything but HTTP is "old". In large part because of corporate firewall rules that block anything but HTTP traffic (and more often than not filter even that traffic).
