As I understand it, only [a, b] is deprecated, with [a b] and [a; b] still being valid horizontal and vertical concatenation. I find a bit inconsistent that [a b] means something different when a and b are string as opposed to arrays, but maybe that rest upon the wrong idea that string are array-like objects.
