Burn to Disc command has disappeared after upgrading to OS 15

Since migrating from PC to Apple some 20 years ago, I always considered Apple to have its customers in mind when coming out with an OS upgrade. I was very disappointed to see the capacity to burn to disc disappear after I upgraded to OS 15. Granted, less and less people burn data on disc. There are, however, those of us who maintain client records, tax returns, and the like on DVDs. Third-party providers, such as BURN, are cumbersome and lack the ease to burn to disc Apple used to provide. I would be willing to roll my iMac back to the previous OS, but that is close to impossible. I wish Apple were to bring back this very useful and sorely missed feature

Apple has not removed the option. It should show up in the Finder's File menu after you have dragged files into a blank CD or DVD in your optical drive.

This doesn't help. I've downloaded dozens if not hundreds of image.iso files from various Torrents and now I can't burn them to disc because it doesn't work on Sequoia whereas I had no problems on Sonoma. Even official discs downloaded from Microsoft such as Windows 10/11 and Office .iso files now can't be burnt. The only answer is to burn the literal .image.iso file to a blank double layer DVD and mount it on explorer in windows then click on setup.exe etc but this is very unsatisfactory. Why change things from Sonoma????
