A contradiction? If the part has yet to be implemented, it can't be dead
code. Code either exists or not.

Regarding deprecation of older parts. A part no longer being
purchaseable doesn't mean it's no longer used. Not at all. Existing
devices can get code updates or even fundamental changes. They may need
bugs fixed. Sometimes such a part is kind of a reference for testing
algorithms. Code examples meant for learning can break. Simulation of
old hardware (historians, museums, geeks) becomes impossible.

All these setbacks just to save half a second of compilation time?
Please keep such parts.
