I was originally thinking this way too, but now I am thinking
that deprecation of an old method is often the first step in
the path to adoption of a new method that avoids the old issues.
There have been examples in the past (e.g., deprecation of site
locals leading to ULAs), and I don't see why it would be any
different in this case.
