They can be removed, but that means projects stop being built hence not wanting to remove them.
That old one hasn't actually even compiled for over a year - I still sometimes get bug reports that things don't build cuz of deprecation errors and it is because of that old package. There's nothing gained and some lost.
I think all packages without a push for over two years should be removed or reassigned to a new owner (make the dub name refer to a newer fork of the original git repo)
