Ah, wait, here's a hypothetical case: the StandardType<T>-based code
does a construction every time; mostly that optimizes away but for
derived types that construction includes an MPI call that isn't easy
to shoehorn into a singleton, so there's a very slim chance that a
user-provided fixed data type might turn out to be faster.  Very
doubtful, but probably enough reason not to deprecate things just yet.
