But "Do not use it" does not even make that clear. The reader has no
idea whether it is something that should never have been used (and why
not) or something that has a replacement. It shouldn't take much empathy
to realize that, or to realize that documentation _must_ have a problem
if someone says it's unclear. We can do better.
