Not surprising in the least. 120 format was first introduced in 1901 and is still around and available, and the common 35mm format is coming up on a century (first released in 1934.) And that's if you just look at Kodak. Fujitsu still makes limited runs of 101, which Kodak discontinued in the 1950's for use in medium format cameras.

35mm has been the de facto standard way before 1934. Even early sound-on-film stuff happened before ‘34

No doubt. Should have been clearer by saying Kodak 135 format instead of just 35mm, especially considering (as you said) there are other 35mm formats.
