If they are going that far, it would probably be better to get rid of more in one go, rather than giving people legacy code headaches with each release.

What else do you think they should remove?

I guess I would focus on cleanup, method names and parameter orders. I don't know enough about the internals to know if also allowing say $var = $val->substring(0, 2); could be an alias to how values are currently passed into functions.
