In 2010 poposal there were also a mechanical edit proposed and approved.
So only deprecate it is a slow working move to change the variation over
a longer time. When deprecated only new-tagging is discouraged. The old
tags don't simply disapear.
Renderer will also have time to implement usage until amenity=* is no
longer used....
