Argh, I had forgotten about live NodeLists. OK, this is a reason that resonates with me and justifies calling these methods obsolete. Too bad these methods are so badly flawed
Fwiw, I think the performance impact of live NodeLists is ... unclear. Their existence does mean that you have to deal with DOM mutations changing the lists, but them being live also means you can make the list getters much faster in cases when the caller doesn't actually want the entire list.
