This is just a general question.

Why do we still use the 24pin connector in such an advanced era of technology with things such as USBC and and all the other kinds of smaller adapters. for example IDE hard-drive cables, we've since upgraded for smaller cables. But the 24pin remains. Can somebody explain?
