I also prefer this one. This is also how Apple tags their functions, eg:

- (void)cacheImageInRect:(NSRect)rect NS_DEPRECATED_MAC(10_0, 10_13, "This 
method shouldn’t be used as it doesn’t work in all drawing situations; instead, 
a subview should be used that implements the desired drawing behavior");

The first argument is when the function was introduced, and the second argument 
when it was deprecated.

They also use a special soft deprecation version named API_TO_BE_DEPRECATED 
that’s just a very high version number. 

See https://asciiwwdc.com/2018/sessions/209 for a discussion about this, and
