Yes, it could be removed, but probably not before the 4.0 series.

The ‘-Wformat’ warning introduced sometime in the 2.0 or 2.2 series
prepared for that removal by warning about simple-format/format
mismatches, but there’s probably still code out there that assumes
‘format’ is the full-blown ‘format’, even when (ice-9 format) is not
explicitly imported.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
