Even if, in the future, there are no cards left that can be held dormant, you can use them for many purchases you would otherwise pay cash for, and not carry a balance, and still have it cost nothing more than stamps.
Maybe some day you won't be able to get a card unless you promise to carry a balance or pay a monthly fee, but it's not here yet.
