I looked more into it. I was wrong (or more correctly, I was outdated). Indeed, recent versions of the notebook over the last while (years?) *have* deprecated the header cells, and they have been removed from the notebook format, I think since at least notebook format 4.0 in 2015 or so:
https://nbformat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/format_description.html#markdown-cells "Heading cells have been removed, in favor of simple headings in markdown." The shortcut commands that also used to exist now just insert markdown cells with the appropriate header text (i.e., pressing '1', '2', etc.).
