Sorry if this response is a bit late but I sort of disagree about them being completely obsolete. I average 5.8 and have both a modded lingao as well as qiyi, for a time I was actually considering switching mains to the modded lingao from my qiyi,and I actually got very close to doing so. Although it may feel “worse” to some, I feel like it fit me almost perfectly. The speed on them is great if setup properly, not slow like a stock Lingao but not as fast as a qiyi clock which I really like since every now and then I would DNF a solve due to overshooting (even after getting used to the qiyi clock) the lingao modded also had strong pin strength which I saw as an improvement from the weak pins of the qiyi. I did end up staying with the QiYi clock as my main but the Lingao was still very close to becoming my new main over it. Sorry for that super long spew but those are some examples of how personal preference can play a part in considering if people feel a puzzle is “obsolete” and how the modeed Lingao can still be a valid option for some.it's infinitely better than a set up lingao. Lingaos are completely obsolete now.
