I would even expect the new name to be used everywhere in Emacs,

I'm sorry, but your expectation is just wrong. Under your scheme,
things would go from "working" in one release to "not working" in the
next. Instead, it's "working", "working with an obsolete warning",
then at some point "not working".
There must be some misunderstanding. I do not expect the variable to be
removed. I just expect that the Emacs code uses the new name for the
variable.
