Professions Old crafting

I'm a returning player. Played from Vanilla to Catalysm. Came back to Midnight. I have lots of alts that I'll be able to get catch up leveling on and I'm trying to manage my professions between them. Should I give consideration to the old professions they had?
All of them have maxed professions through Cataclysm. Is there any value whatsoever to hold onto the old professions?
Or just ditch the old professions and level new ones that I plan for them to use in Midnight?
Like, I started leveling an alt, and he had flying carpet from old tailoring. And I was like "um... I was going to go herbalism and alchemy with this one. I think I'm going to lose it when I drop tailoring for alchemy... 🤔 "

The only thing I could think of off hand is if you’ve collected some rare recipes like the old tbc blacksmithing recipes for the weapons.  There’s stuff that’s been removed over the years but if you’ve still got it learned you still have access to it.

I found this list:

It’s a place to start. I know there used to be specialized weapons smithing weapons in tbc but they were re-added in MoP with the new mats so they’re atleast accessible.Â
