Whether a class is public exported or not has no real relationship with whether it should have the `@Deprecated` annotation or not. It is better to add the `@Deprecated` annotation eagerly to all classes that are part of the feature being deprecated, if they are only used for the implementation of that feature, and if the thinking is that they would be removed if the feature is removed. Plus it usually simplifies things as it usually minimizes the places where you need to suppress warnings. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/11430
