Part of the deprecating is because Apache configuration is delicate, complicated, and [reportedly] the documentation isn't always helpful. If you're beyond that stage, that's one objection overcome. The caveats: there is some concern that Apache security updates may be frequent and patching may be delicate and complicated [it's been around long enough that may have an "organic" structure].
