Over 25 years, Postfix has accumulated some features that

A quick status update.

First, several features have been logging warnings that they would
be removed for 10 years or more, so we could delete them in good
conscience (perhaps keeping the warning with the suggested alternative).
This change has not yet been made.

Next, I have added new warnings for the following features, so that
they can be removed some 5 years down the road.

The present state is in postfix-3.9-20240218. I have slienced the
noisy warnings for deprecated and unused configuration parameters
so that they are not logged while upgrading or installing Postfix.
The warnings are still logged, once, with postfix start, start-fg,
check, reload, or status.

Just a quick thought here. I think it would make sense to release this as Postfix 4.0 since removing and deprecating a large number of features should probably be considered quite a major change.
