Comment (by jhpalmieri):

 The safe way is to deprecate first, delete later, precisely because we
 don't know what is used "in the wild". I don't see a compelling reason to
 do anything else.

 I believe that the particular deletions here are probably safe to do now,
 but a deprecation now followed by deletion later would be even safer.

 > I believe that the custom is to only deprecate things which are somehow
 accessible in the global namespace, and that we can remove/change whatever
 has to be imported manually.

 I don't know this custom. Certainly
 `sage.rings.integer_ring_python.iterator(...)` can be run without an
 import, just like the deprecated function
 `sage.combinat.alternating_sign_matrix.to_monotone_triangle` (for
 example).
