A lot of software supports it, including NSS / Firefox. It's not
an ideal curve, and it should get replaced, but it's currently
better to have it then not.

I currently only count 222 certificate using P-521 that chain to
the Mozilla root store, and I guess some of those would fall back
to RSA.

I see no reason to say that they shouldn't be used at this time.
