I should have added: a recent (ish) addition to the HTTP protocol is the "SameSite" attribute to cookies, which prevents CSRF attacks. However not all browsers currently in circulation support it, so for the time being web developers still need to use CSRF tokens (or not rely on cookies, if using client side JavaScript)
