Sorry - this was my fault. The stages of deprecation are kind of different,
and the two options I had for this "deprecation" (not "removal") were
"Draft Ready for Trial email" and "Draft Intent to Ship email". I chose the
latter and renamed the subject line to "Intent to Deprecate". I hadn't
realized we had tooling look at these emails. I guess the right thing was
to choose the "Ready for Trial" email template, and not change the subject
line. Perhaps a suggestion would be to rename those links or add help text
explaining which one is appropriate at each stage for a deprecation/removal
intent?

Thanks,
Mason
