Wrong. It's the original standard shortcut. Shift-Del = Cut, Shift-Ins = Paste.

It's part of the CUA spec. It's what dictates how all modern GUIs
work, even though most people have never heard of it.

It was replaced by Ctrl-V due to the influence of MacOS on Windows.

The Mac shortcuts are Cmd-X to cut (X looks like scissors), Cmd-V to
paste (V looks like an arrowhead -- paste >here<) and Cmd-C to Copy (C
for Copy).
