In general, it is a bug to not use set substitution variables. If
there are cases where they shouldn't be used, then the tools that
generate them need to be fixed. It would be fine for bls to ignore the
specific ones that are deprecated, if there is some reason that the
deprecated variables can't be just removed yet.
