I'd say the most accurate characterisation now would be "superseded/abandoned/stalled" (in decreasing order of likelihood IMHO). Once more intelligent matching exists it would be interesting to see what the monthly influx of new unmatched things is. It might be that having declared things before some ancient date as historical (i.e. don't care, throw them into a "superseded/abandoned/stalled" bucket) and a block of upfront work to manually characterise anything after that date that the monthly ongoing effort to manually characterise any unmatched backlog into superseded or known abandoned, leaving the rest in a default "abandoned/stalled" state would not be too unmanageable (if anyone could be convinced to care to do so).
