The deprecation will happen some day, but not in a day or two. We are still seeing very high usage, probably due to existing Polymer 0.5 users.
As other browsers including Safari/WebKit won't implement /deep/, for interoperability it is better to move away from using /deep/ and ::shadow. For the replacement, CSS custom properties (formerly called CSS variables) are being worked on, and will be in Chrome soon (I hope). To answer Max's old question, "static profile" is a profile that is used for querySelector/querySelectorAll, to allow slow operations only when used from JavaScript, but not allow ones in CSS (which is called "dynamic profile"). This is still unresolved and the future is not yet determined. The discussion is here: https://github.com/w3c/webcomponents/issues/78 For reference, see https://drafts.csswg.org/selectors-4/ for the definition of "static profile" and "dynamic profile". (it seems to be called "complete profile" and "fast profile" in older spec http://www.w3.org/TR/selectors4/).
