The First Order, as a fanatical fascist junta, was obsessed with replicating the glory days of the Empire and focused heavily on pageantry imbuing classic Imperial armor and starfighter styles with modern technology. The First Order’s use of stormtroopers served more than a practical purpose, however. Unlike the Empire, which treated its most well-trained stormtroopers and TIE Fighter pilots as disposable, the First Order needed to preserve its personnel in its war against the Resistance, so its basic TIE Fighters came equipped with hyperdrives and deflector shields and its army only consisted of elite stormtroopers. The First Order, while vast and powerful, is far smaller than the Empire it idolizes, so relying exclusively on an elite force of stormtroopers is a necessity.
