Does anyone still deduct mortgage interest? I haven’t for years - I use Standard Deductions and thats it.

I wish the article had hard and fast numbers for the total US taxpayers who itemize for mortgage interest. I bet its not much.

I know a lot of people file a schedule A, especially if you live in a high State income tax State.

Agreed. I only came out better by itemizing for about the first four years of my mortgage. And that's before you even consider the reduced record-keeping and hassle involved in taking the standard deduction.
