They didn't remove the parser, because I can still open wikipedia zim files.
However, it is certainly broken, because it won't follow links or otherwise let me browse it. But it has been that way for a very long time, which is why search was important.

(~15G zim file)

Which is a problem when their current devices have a maximum of 8GBs of storage. And it needs to be updated and people will want the pictures.
Older devices would take an sd card. Alas, wp with pictures is 56G and I think even the devices that took sd cards stop at 32G. And without a decent filesystem (exfat? ext4?) You gotta split the file, which breaks the zim reader following links too, but didn't break search.
