You've hit the nail on the head for what I'm trying to avoid -- we shouldn't 
have multiple checks unless they do drastically different things. Having a 
deprecated check like this really only makes sense for APIs that are deprecated 
but aren't uniformly marked as `[[deprecated]]` by the library. As such, I 
think we really only need one check for this rather than splitting it out over 
multiple checks -- the existing check functionality could be rolled into this 
one and its check become an alias.
