@Deprecated means something different. It's about some code that you shouldn't 
use because we no longer think it's good to use and it's going to be removed in 
the future.

This is not what a @beta or @experimental annotation would mean. They would 
mean "this is a new api that you can use but it's not stable yet and may change 
in the future so be prepared to update your code if that happens".

Thanks
