We haven’t banned them yet but I can’t remember the last time I had to fly one. Quite a few places we go to have switched to RNAV or RNAV Visual Approaches where you might have circled in the old days.

I agree with previous posters that the risk/reward ratio is all wrong and, collectively, there has been definite skill atrophy in this area.
