Elastic Search Basic concepts documentaton

I am going through the documentation and had seen an article in 5.3 and it never present in 7.x / 6.x version documenation. I am wondering is it still reelvant ( assuming it should as it is related to basic concepts)

It's broadly correct, types are irrelevant.
