Comment(by kcrisman):

 that the code itself is cruft, just not the name :)

 should also add some doctests to make sure it only returns Taylor
 expansions.

 Well, I would envision it would have a special keyword that would require
 returning only Taylor series.  Presumably `.series()` should also have
 this, don't you think?  Even if that weren't the default behavior.

 > This can also be done as a part of #6119. Then, instead of a deprecation
 message we give an error pointing to the `.series()` method.

 Sounds good.
