Nothing to be sorry about, you really raised a valid point as is that
our teams deprecation policies may not be the clearest out there. And as
a user you deserved an explanation. I'd really hope all the projects
(and not only in Gentoo) tried to justify their decisions when somebody
couldn't understand them.

Anyway even if that wasn't the case, constructive criticism is always
welcome here :D
