While I agree F should never be used in favor of K, bar is a common unit of pressure even in metric engineering projects. For strict calculations only using SI units is obviously the way to go. But for science communication and general conversation about engineering, just using bar is often a more easily understood unit because there are more day-to-day comparisons that the average person can make. And thus oftentimes it's easier to comprehend bar than it is Pa.
