This is terrible news and with Pagerank also disabled recently, now 2 features of our domain health testing service has been crippled. Pagerank was easy to replace with moz rank but this data was irreplaceable due to the fact that it was specific and unique to google. Rip one of our main tools.

PageRank had been completely useless for a couple of years, and practically useless for several years before that.
That depends on your reason of usage, as a guide to web ranks its been obsolete as you say for years, but as a cheap and quick measure of a domains potential (for passing link juice or to compare link juice between two domains) in comparison against another, Pagerank had some value.
