It's actually kinda crazy that it has been kept. I personally think resolvers should not resolve that zone at all.

The crazy thing is that there's a list of actually agreed-upon root name servers and they maintain a uniform namespace for the internet.
I suspect the above statement isn't actually a true statement across the world, but at least for today the list of roots isn't generically ideological in the same way a broad set of "obvious truths" is now ideological.
Yeah, with uniformly applied rules. Keeping .su is a violation of that and should be deprecated.
The rule is uniformly applied: there is a corresponding ccTLD for, and only for, every two-letter country code in the ISO list. You can complain about who the ISO list assigns country codes for, but that's a completely separate issue.
Oh, I'm referring to the list of root DNS servers.

Wait till you learn how russia kept the seat of ussr on the UN Security Council.
I mean, the seat of USSR was given to the Russian Federation, as Russia is recognized as the continuation of the USSR, or do you mean something else?
