Aren't they planning on changing it to https://scratch.org, or am I just going insane?
You're right. When the Scratch Team got the domain scratch.team in I believe 2021 (not 100% sure though) the site redirects to scratch.org before then redirecting back to scratch.mit.edu, which many users infered that Scratch was going to change their actual domain soon to scratch.org (they also won a legal battle for scratch.org showing that the Scratch Team really want it). It does make sense - Scratch isn't based in MIT anymore (it moved into the Scratch foundation in 2019) and mit.edu is a lot more clunky compared to .org.

I'm not gonna sit here acting like a master web developer, but there's probably a reason that sites don't change the domain to link different parts of the site and instead use those / thingys (edit: I just googled it and they're call subdirectories)
Yes, you're right. Also, the current app is made to work with only one domain and these subdirectories; changing them would take months.
