From the Federal register...first paragraph we see:

"Two years after this rule becomes effective, paper pilot certificates
may no longer be used to exercise piloting privileges."

Looks like Larry's comment is correct.

Nope. Only true if you;re reliant upon the FAA for your flying privelages.
( and it's not 'right to fly', either)

Regardless of the "right" wording, are you equivocating? Sounds like
you can't fly in the USA unless you get a plastic license.

Not quite, it sounds like you can no longer fly if your certificate
is issued by the FAA.

Well, to be more precise, if it's the only one you're relying on.

Ok, I see your point. You are right. So this American, who has a FAA
issued pilot certificate, could no longer legally fly in the USA at
some point if I did not get the new plastic certificate. I did not
look at the wording in a legal sense.

BTW, I did get a new plastic certificate a while back to get rid of
the SSN number. That may have cost zero but I may be wrong on that.

Plus they make the certificate numbers way too small.

Actually, he could, if he is using a foreign certificate. I have about five
of them in various states of repair and can use any one of them to fly in
the US.
