Not quite, both are valid ways to revert hide-leading-stars to it's
original value, with the second (which I picked for the patch) having
the advantage to properly get rid off the buffer-local property again.
The mode itself calls for setting the variable locally to `t' instead of
the original value.

I attached the patch, which I hope is the correct format.  I'm still a
bit new to this, my apologies if I cause any unnecessary work.

D.

Subject: [PATCH] org-indent.el: Deprecate
 `org-hide-leading-stars-before-indent-mode'

* lisp/org-indent.el (org-indent-mode): Make `org-hide-leading-stars'
buffer local and revert it back to it's global value when exiting the
mode without storing it's global value manually.
(org-hide-leading-stars-before-indent-mode): Remove declaration.

This commit implements my suggestion from the mailing list
(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2020-02/msg00759.html)
to rely on Emacs' native mechanisms for restoring a buffer-local
variable to it's global default value instead of storing the global
value in a temporary variable (in this case:
`org-hide-leading-stars-before-indent-mode').
