Then it's not really deprecated; it's merely disfavored.

To deprecate means to express disapproval of. If we are not going to
express disapproval (i.e. annoy the users of the test suite), then it's
not really deprecated. You can't eat your cake and have it too.

I agree we shouldn't throw a warning right now, but at some point in the
future we should, *then* it will be deprecated.

Cheers.
