Got it, so "legacy" part is questionable here. Check out the releases page, https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxJava/releases, the 1.x is still being actively supported and maintained (and there are reasons for that, as I mentioned). So it is really up to us to decide, should we support it or not, but with the new module we could get the stats and make the decision not based on "legacy" but if it is used or not. I don't have particular attachments to RxJava 1.x so if you are confident no one is relying on this integration, I would agree with you and we should better remove this code.
