This is a very good point. The only possible retcon I could come up with for this is if starfleet had a required core curriculum course in ancient technologies that Scotty hated but also got an A+ in because he’s Scotty.
He's already replaced it, but has to keep the HW and remain proficient with it, in case Starfleet shows up for an inspection and he has to swap back to using it
