We haven't used Phonics in US schools since the 1980s in most cases. So I somehow doubt you have kids or have interacted with a US public school in decades.

you probably do not have kids in school or any familiarity with our school systems… Phonics is not only used but is on a significant rise
This is so wildly incorrect that I question your understanding of the word Phonics. Not only do I have kids in school now, I am familiar with the curriculums recently used by multiple school districts (and the alternatives they considered), and research conducted over the last five decades on literacy teaching around the US.
