It’s not done just to modernize the space, drop ceilings can reduce the overall volume of space that needs to be heated/cooled, as well as offering places to hang lighting fixtures.

"Modernize" == "Uglify"
I would rather have a drop ceiling above me than worry about plaster falling on my head, which is what will eventually happen to the original ceiling.
Modern = practical
ONE WOULD EXPECT BETTER FROM CRASH…YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY AN IMPOSTER…FIX THE PLASTER AND APPRECIATE THE BEAUTY OF LIFE
