I believe the main reason isn't (& probably shouldn't) deprecated is

That is a problem with that particular render. It is not a tagging problem.
If that particular render failed to display some other feature .. would
mappers then resort to tagging it some other way so it renders on that
particular render???
It appears that in order to get mappers to use the correct tagging one
particular render has to stop showing the 'obsolete' and 'depreciated' tags.
Similarly for incorrect mapping of relations with shared ways etc etc.
Mean while I am using tags that simply don't render on that particular
render .. because they are the absolutely correct tags to use for those
features.
I think too many are 'tagging for one renderer'.

I was going to fix the status of abandoned=yes which is currently
incorrectly listed as "obsolete". I thought it was probably
deprecated, since the wiki page was deleted when Key:abandoned:*
(namespaced) was made in 2015, but it's still used 40,000 times.
The key disused (mainly disused=yes) is also used 60,000 times, even
though the situation is the same: no wiki page, and the Key:disused:
page suggests it is deprecated.
Should these two be added to deprecated features, or should I recreate
the deleted pages and change the status to something other than
obsolete/deprecated?
I see that there was just a mention added that landuse=quarry plus
disused=yes might be more sensible than disused:landuse=quarry.
