I agree with you, but there's already plenty of precedent for this.

The times, they are a-changin'. I've been meaning to start whacking the
things which are iterable which really shouldn't be. Like, who uses
destructuring assignment with the os.stat result anymore? Puh-leez,
that's so 1996. That really oughta be deprecated.
Why? What problems does it cause?
If it isn't broken, don't break it.
