Does this not mean that we should stop using cermaic capacitors of this type?

Four parameters that make ceramic capacitors desirable:

  1. Low ESR
  2. Low ESL
  3. Small size, especially surface mount.
  4. Very inexpensive

Or is there a way to mitigate this problem?

So if, by design, the capacitor volage is constant, then there is no reason not to use a ceramic. If 10\$\mu\$F is desired , but at the operating voltage the capacitor has 50% of its value, then use a 20 \$\mu\$F value or two 10\$\mu\$F in parallel.
