We do deprecate (and remove) stuff from Emacs if we don't think it's
useful.  I don't think it's useful to think of ELPA as a cemetery for
dead code.  :-)

But I understand that there's many different opinions on this, and I'm
not opposing moving stuff to ELPA on principle -- when we finally get
ELPA bundling, then it's time to re-start the discussions about specific
packages.
