Should it be removed? I think we don't need to worry about pre-20 versions in the documentation except in the sections pertaining to history. Even pre-21 would in my opinion be irrelevant: features that first appeared in Emacs 21.1 can, in my opinion, just be explained without bothering to say when they were introduced. That is right.
