"Depreciated" means "reduced in value". You mean "deprecated", but you can
only deprecate a feature from the wiki docs, not from the database.

No. highway=unsurfaced could be what's now commonly tagged as highway=track,
or highway=unclassified, or highway=bridleway. Only one of those three is a
road.

You should create a rendering which highlights highway=unsurfaced, so that
people will find them and modernise the tagging _appropriately_ for that
specific case.
