I didn't say we don't have them, but for new bindings we want to flag things like this. It is fine if new dts files use those existing bindings, but no one should be creating new bindings with the deprecated style. The problem is that I can't really automate this check on the binding documentation until we move to schema based bindings (which won't be soon). So I would like to warn if dts files use deprecated styles. I don't expect this to be a frequent occurrence.
