Some who are 80ish and up may either use a check or cash. My parental units only know how to use checks, have zero computer skills, no email addresses. ATM and credit cards are not in their future.
I respect how they choose to still be independent that is familiar. Checks are their comfort zone, I could never chastise them for writing a check, it’s respect that is in my upbringing for my elders.
It is a skill set I passed on to my children, and grandchildren, that not only should you respect their elders, they are a wealth of information that you will never find in a text book.
