Couldn't we just be silent about this then?


Do you mean silencing the compiler warning? I guess so, but I think that would be a bit dangerous: at some point the function might get removed entirely, then we'd have to scramble to find a replacement to keep the code compilable, so I'd rather keep the compiler warning until we find a good solution.
