USB 2.0 is still on new PC, phone, USB hub?

I found a USB 2.0 port on a new office PC. Has anyone else noticed USB 2.0 making a comeback? Especially, I saw this year's iPhone air and 17 support USB 2.0 too.

Is it to cut cable costs? Someone mentioned that USB 2.0 needs fewer traces on the motherboard. It uses smaller ports, and its hips are smaller too. Costs drop a lot.

Edit: USB 2 is still used. I'm just trying to say that it's still popular, or even more so than before.

How to format a write protected usb flash drive using diskpart

The video is a bit long, so I sped it up. Hope it's helpful.
