This. The openssh devs have been complaining for almost 20 years that people should just use sftp, ignoring the fact that command line users hate the interface. If the first 17 years of telling people that the new interface is better didn't do it, it's unlikely that they'll be convinced this year. (Wow, it doesn't seem like that long until you write it out.)
Another alternative is to just use rsync in place of scp, but that does still require retraining muscle memory and requires installation of additional software.
