   > This is just my view. Naming is hard but renaming methods once released 
presents its own problems (and the community is using it). I see little reason 
not to have 2 methods but working towards the fast removal of the pre-existing 
method is something that I would question. Deprecate the existing one by all 
means but I would question the idea of removing the existing ione n 2.0.0. We 
can remove it in 3.0.0.
   
   I am not sure what the issue here is, we have removed many (if not all?) 
deprecated methods in Pekko 2.0.0 a lot of which have more consequences than 
this PR as those removed methods weren't just aliases. Ontop of that, due to 
how the documentation is generated if we leave both `gunzip` and 
`gzipDecompress` then we have duplicate documentation entries.
   
   I can see what you mean by fast removal, but practically speaking the kinds 
of people that will move to Pekko 2.0.x will be able to easily handle the 
dropped version of method (along with. everything else) where as the other set 
of people who can't move that fast will continue to use Pekko 1.x which will 
still be supported and have features backported.
