I offer you another explanation: Validator developers may have missed that voting, and therefore they did not implement a "deprecated" warning. Editor support for the new tags may be missing too. (I don't know, because I use an editor where all tags have to be typed in manually.) It's not documentation that helps spread new tags. It's editors and validators. -- Friedrich K.
