I don't think it's a good idea to add a "don't do this warning" and then 26 "do as I say, not as I do" lines scattered across the core. If we're going to deprecate something, we need to stop using it in the core. Which would mean that we need an alternative in the core. Which would mean a bikeshed argument about what next.
