Maybe it would help if the chairs could clarify the difference between
"deprecated" and "prohibited" / "forbidden".
I think these words have straightforward definitions, and I find many
responses to be disrespectful in insisting that "deprecated" means
something it does not. But maybe this is an honest misunderstanding,
and just down to translations and different first languages.
The problem is not the language, but how the word "deprecated" is used
by different regulatory bodies.
We have RFC2119, so I think we should stick to it.
We also have RFC1902 from 1996 which defines 'deprecated', a definition
which has been carried forward with newer technology, such as RFC6020,
from 2020, and which is in widespread use in the IETF (although perhaps
not in the TLS WG).
