Oh I'm sure people still use El Torito today! I remember having to go through that to boot my hobby OS.
Admittedly that was some years ago, but you can still find fresh Github issues of lost souls who still use bootable ISOs

The first 3 parts aren't that complicated (literally a few sectors with fixed content, maybe a few pointer fixups), and no reason IMHO to want to kill off ISO. Generating that actual file system is the hard work, but also required for live-USB distros, which circles back to the point being made in the article eluding me...
