Yeah, but nvme got rotational drives support in 6.13. So what good for scsi is now (apart from connecting scanners and tape changers)?

We just need the HDD vendors to ship rotational NVMe! Linux is ready for these, but I haven't seen any beyond demos and samples.

USB Attached SCSI and Universal Flash Storage use SCSI, but I’m unsure what the advantage of using SCSI in these fields is.

All other storage standards (ATAPI, SATA, SAS, USB MSC) are just mechanisms to move SCSI commands.

SATA's not just a transport for SCSI commands; for SATA HDDs and SSDs, there's a specific SATA command set, separate to SCSI.

ATAPI over SATA is, however, just a transport for SCSI commands.
