Hahaha, don’t underestimate jank ass vendor systems. My workplace has at least one business critical thing using SOAP. We’ve been spinning our wheels on deprecating the damn thing for three years.
Our government a few years ago made a cool new system to sniff on small businesses because they don’t have enough money to defend themselves properly in court track cash transactions and it was so hip and new that it used SOAP. That was the first* time I worked with SOAP, until then I managed to avoid it.
* I technically worked with SOAP once before but the part I worked on was like ten abstractions away from the protocol.

Lol, I probably should have said “legacy”. Would hope no one is writing new SOAP APIs in 2024!
