That's true, it's a bit of an anachronism. But everyone knows what it means.
Like skeuomorphism. Nobody uses floppy disks anymore, yet the floppy logo is universal for "save".

It's depressing that the various rounds of Win 10 logos floating around all use the floppy-for-save concept. Floppies haven't been in vogue at all this century.

But "floppy for save" has been ubiquitous. Its not so much a skeumorph as a well-recognized ideograph.
