  If I understand correctly, we're talking about ~ three individual bytes of 
CSS, after transfer encoding, to be saved by removing these class names in the 
grouped CSS selectors. Perhaps we can leave these decade-old stable class 
aliases defined for a few more release cycles along the new selectors and not 
be bothered by one line of code in the interim. This would also aid edit 
notices, filter warnings, less popular gadgets, Lua modules, interface 
translation messages, templates, and everything on third-party wikis where 
migration cannot easily begin until after the next release. These things take 
time, but fortunately it's really easy to support at no cost to us.
