How do you feel about turn-based combat? Should more modern games adopt it, or is it best left as a thing of the past?

I enjoy both turn-based and action combat. I like how turn-based combat allows for some strategies without being overly complex like in most TRPG.
I was a big fan of Final Fantasy 7 OG, but I can't get into FF7 remake mainly because of the hybrid combat. I would rather have it turn-based like in the original.
Turn-based games I like:
Final Fantasy 5,6,7,9,10. Dragon Quest series, Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, Super Mario RPG
Action-based RPG I like:
Fallout 3, Mass Effect, Skyrim
As a kid I played the turn based Might & Magic 4&5 like it was real time. So I spammed the attack button as soon as an enemy appeared. For some strange reason that game was really hard for me. Still loved it. I still play it every few years.
Long Covid has left me mentally and physically disabled. So turn based games are much easier for me to play.
