This is due to a big shift in the metagame. 6 months ago banshees were extremely common. Banshee switches were perhaps about as common as raven switches now. Firing angle nerf was significant, but that didn't necessarily drop them from being super good to useless.

When bomber meta started taking over everybody just kind of went with it. A bomber switch is not strictly better than a banshee switch although usually safer and more difficult to counter with ground units. Depending on how many and what kind of defenses your opponent has and what type of army he has banshees and other gunships can still be deadly.

For
instance,
when
enemy
is
massing
rockos
a
suprise
banshee
swarm
could
ravage
them
very
quickly.
A
banshee
makes
cost
vs
a
swarm
of
rockos
in
approximately
30
seconds.
A
raven
would
need
a
few
minutes
for
that
due
to
the
very
low
weight
of
rockos.
Raiding
naked
mexes
is
also
where
banshees
shine
-
ravens
are
quite
impractically
slow
at
that.

Obviously there are also significant disadvantages to a gunship switch over a plane switch, but more science needs to be done. Gunships just haven't been played enough in 1v1s after the meta shifted.
