yeah: "define 'broken'".
i feel like the lesson i learned from the 2008 removals was a strong "i'm never doing that again". obviously things are a little different for me, where i already had implementations, but my experience has been that [in almost all cases] there's little or no benefit to removing these things, but [in almost all cases] you do cause unnecessary disruption and work for others (and/or inconvenience for users).
