I'm not really convinced a comment in every place makes a ton of sense. It's always the same reason: "The headers assumed that these symbols are available until LLVM X. Removing them would break programs compiled against these old headers". IMO a single place where we document the reason for using this macros would be better.
Re. greppability: I don't see how this isn't greppable. Just do `_LIBCPP_AVAILABILITY_MINIMUM_HEADER_VERSION < VERSION` and you'll find all the places.
