Ah, there are people who use Tor to access non-onion services. Got it.

Seemed like onion services were created to solve the security issues that exit nodes bring, so I assumed people stopped using them and started running onion services instead.

For the more scummier or illegal elements on the network, that is true. For onion services, lasering attacks and takeovers plus honeypot are the chief danger.
