Thanks for pointing that out. It's been a while since I wrote that proposal, but I checked it again, and you are right, I missed the procedural function. I have clarified it by adding a new paragraph and the deprecation message. I have also reworded the text without changing its meaning to highlight my impact analysis, which showed that this function is not used in any popular open-source project. FWIW, both of my proposals included impact analysis from the start. I was unable to find any usage of these functions in the wild. I hope this change is not going to reset the counter. This was a simple oversight when writing the text of the proposal.
