The reason is that lighting was done in an additive way, requiring an extra pass (drawing all 2D content again) for every light in the scene. Finally, the way light shaders now works is more user friendly to creating custom lighting shaders. The shader language is mostly untouched since Godot 3.x, For Godot 4.0,

Flagging instances or geometries as opaque allows uninterrupted hardware intersection search and prevents invocation of the any-hit shader. Enable the use of any-hit shaders only for those geometries that need it; for example, to do alpha testing. Consider representing mesh particles as instances in TLAS.
