IIRC the logic for remove this support by default is layed out in the PR description for https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/pull/20802.
;TLDR; Since some 6 years apo, our best practices document has advocated users against using *glGetProcAddress() functions when targeting the web: https://emscripten.org/docs/optimizing/Optimizing-WebGL.html#optimizing-load-times-and-other-best-practices , due to the massive code size bloat that it causes (but also due to the performance problems that using it brings). Users are advised to not use that function.
