UPnP has covered a huge percentage of use cases that actual users care about, and those who it doesn't cover are often able to do their own customization.

upnp should not exist. Any new router default disables it, as it should be.

Care to elaborate? Non-sophisticated users don't deserve IP reachability?

I used to have it enabled long ago. It's insecure. Random cheap devices will open up ports with upnp without the user noticing. It doesn't work that well either, cause hosts will conflict on ports. P2P applications have better ways to establish connectivity.
