scp(1) has used the SFTP protocol since OpenSSH 9.0. Before that it used its own protocol.

So why remove the scp command then?
The page clearly says that the protocol is deprecated, not the command.
The command isn't being removed, only support for the SCP protocol (which the scp command hasn't used for years).
