That's basically why anarchism only really exists within the imperial core as an ideology. It's really just liberals being edgy and pretending to be on the left without actually wanting to make any systemic change. That said, I do think a lot of ideas from syndicalism are genuinely good and should be applied within a socialist society. However, building such a society in the first place requires Marxism.
I think it's still useful, for drawing people in. I considered myself an anarchist when I joined lemmy a couple years ago. I don't anymore.
It can be since it's more socially acceptable, and then people start engaging with new ideas which can lead them towards more rigorous analysis.
