It still seems pretty stupid to most of us. It's still common knowledge that knowing someone's IP is meaningless, it's mostly kids and the technologically inept who don't understand this in my experience.

Why is it meaningless? It can be very dangerous for people to know your IP address - especially if you're one of the many people who are "scared" of it (because the dangers pertain mostly to them).
