I was hoping it was a mistake from Adobe.. Then again, good thing we have shortcut keys.

It's actually still there! You just have to change your Workspace to "Classic" instead of the default "Basic" Workspace is under Window, near the bottom! I hope this helps anyone who was confused like I was :) Edit: Also, thank you so much for this tutorial, it helped so much ;-;

One addendum (because this really tripped me up when keyboards made this change): For F5 (add frame), F6 (add Keyframe) and F7 (add blank keyframe), The user needs to make sure that the keys are in “Function” mode, By either holding the function key (fn) on the keyboard when pressing the keys, Or making sure the keys are “function locked” (either by hitting the function lock key or changing it in settings) Otherwise the keyboard will do the alternate function listed (usually volume up/down and the like) This really tripped me up when keyboards started moving away from function keys having dedicated functions, so I hope it helps someone else avoid my learning troubles!
