This is the big thing for me which seems to be have been forgotten. If you need to quickly upgrade a Django project from using url to re_path the fastest way with the least amount of code changes is to simply alias the import in your urls.py files I.E ```from django.urls import re_path as url``` then you won't have to update every individual entry. so I don't see this as a big deal and am in favour of completely removing it and continue to encourage people to not question why they are using re_path and not path anyway which is more secure and fits more common url usage.
Sure if you are going from 1.x up then you have to replace more but you'll be making much larger changes anyway.
