Overall 16:9 is mostly better than 4:3 if you aren't scaling up the size and price of your screen with the cube of the diagonal length, and I'm glad we've moved on to 16:9, but 4:3 wasn't actually ever that bad. It's fine. Not great, but fine. There's no need to be melodramatic about it.
I don't think anyone thinks 4:3 was that bad, it's just being used as a precursor/setup for "stop recording in vertical!!"
