Why do many scripts use Lighting instead of ServerStorage?

In many scripts, I have seen them use Lighting instead of ServerStorage. Not only is that a security risk, due to exploiters being able to see the contents of lighting, but it’s odd to use lighting for storage.

It is odd. People used Lighting instead of ServerStorage/ReplicatedStorage because back then the latter two didn’t exist. So people used Lighting to store things. Now that we have proper storage services there is no reason to store things in Lighting anymore.
