I cannot find a discussion or decision. An old patch was applied that
lacked an associated RFC. People later noticed the E_DEPRECATED error,
so it was removed. That's how I see it, at least, so I do not feel
comfortable deprecating these. We've already made this sort of mistake
in the past (e.g., $str{42}), so we should not do it again until this
topic is clarified by the dev team.
