Issue ID: 18148
Summary: Integral Promotion Fix For 16997 Should Not Issue
Deprecation, Not A Warning
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: critical
Priority: P1
Component: dmd

We've had this discussion before on the forums but I think it needs to be
restated:
Using a warning as part of the deprecation cycle is a poor choice because the
majority of build setups (including DUB) have "warnings as errors" set by
default (this is the sensible thing to do). This means that you're breaking
people's code on step one of the cycle.
Instead, this should issue a deprecation message, then a warning, then an
error.
