The threading documentation for 3.9 still claims "While they are not listed 
below, the camelCase names used for some methods and functions in this module 
in the Python 2.x series are still supported by this module." It would be 
better to mention when isAlive was removed.

The method is still used in some major libraries, like NLTK 
(https://github.com/nltk/nltk/blob/637af5380d6071517a5f0d224649e5c3560b5f91/nltk/inference/api.py#L536).
 Documenting the removal clearly in the threading docs would make it easier for 
developers to upgrade.
