Comment (by husobj):

 I have used (and created) many plugins that rely on the attachment -> post
 as parent relationship so until such time as #14513 becomes a possibility
 I think we have to keep this functionality.

 However, I would agree with @helen that we don't need to "emphasise these
 under-the-hood concepts" by default.
 There are quite a few plugins that add attach/detach functionality and UI,
 and I'm not sure that this needs to be added to core until the future of a
 post relationship schema is more certain?
