This counts for me as typical destruction.
Destructive types who like to destroy software projects either announce that cleanup which will everything make better "It’s also a strong investment in keeping your code clean and light which improves future development speed" or that destruction is good.<p>"All references to the deprecated should be removed across all relevant repos" No one should ever know what was there before.<p>Fork a new major version and don't destroy the old version. Let others maintain that if you don't care anymore.
