A deprecation warning for two releases (i.e. two years). Then it can be 
removed. So if people want to move forward with removing this then a 
DeprecationWarning would need to be raised in all places where _closed is set 
with a message stating the functionality is deprecated in 3.9 and slated for 
removal in 3.11 (along with appropriate doc updates, both for the module and 
What's New).
