IIUC, what is a real improvement on the library developer's side
is seen as a cosmetic change from the user's POV.

I think that the question is whether a cosmetic change warrants
triggering a compiler warning.
"Commons" has usually been (overly) user-friendly, e.g. through
"deprecating before removing"; in this case, it looks like there is
drawback...
Maybe, when the time comes (next major version), all the bloat
can be removed (and users redirected to the replacement) without
having to deprecate (in the current version)...
