We also have the right to consider the new commands and the necessity
to support them right _now_.
It may be that they are really required, but I bet that in many cases
they will only correspond to
corner cases.

But only sometimes. That is no acuse for not providing everything that
might be demanded by a journal.

Sure, but it has to be done case-by-case. My point is that the argument should not be "all layouts should be updated to match the latest version strctly". There are cases where the macros are just deprecated and should eventually be replaced. I think using the deprecated versions is good enough during stable releases.

You still don't understand what I tried to explain so many times. In
case of the journal classes it is not the choice of the user or our
choice. The publisher forces you to do what he wants or you cannot commit.

OK, I was joking (you know me by now; don't you?). But the serious part in there is that there is no general rule, every journal is a special case.
