The point is more that SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 were nearly identical. That is, the breaks in similarity were at SSL 2.0 -> SSL 3.0 (and TLS 1.2 -> TLS 1.3, to a lesser extent), as opposed to the common misconception that TLS 1.0 is what changed everything.

But yes, it's all a bit irrelevant now that anything below TLS 1.2 is sketchy to use.
