Obviously the review has already been done on depreciated elements
hence why they are depreciated. If there is no reason to remove them
at all, they wouldn't be depreciated!

Agreed. Depreciated is the stage before the item is to be removed --
to give everyone time to stop using it (and to prevent new people from
using it). Once you've given everyone enough time to stop using it,
you remove it. I don't see the problem here.
