I did need these in the past at one point but I eventually used a bridge component than converted the AHB-Lite and APB transaction into basic MM transaction just with minimum signals on the other side and I finished the work using them. Throughput did not matter much in that specific scenario since it was reading or writing some few hundreds of bytes. I was basically interfacing with IP created by some 3rd party many years before my project. If I had a BFM with a monitor I would have tried to design a slave or master instead as the need existed.
Certainly the Avalon-MM and Avalon-ST is a lot more important than those old AHB and APB buses.
