Perhaps we can leave these decade-old stable class aliases defined for a few more release cycles along the new selectors and not be bothered by one line of code in the interim. This would also aid edit notices, filter warnings, less popular gadgets, Lua modules, interface translation messages, templates, and everything on third-party wikis where migration cannot easily begin until after the next release. These things take time, but fortunately it's really easy to support at no cost to us. As noted in T270796#6714564 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T270796#6714564>, `messagebox`'s introduction and use in MW CSS is only 2.5 years old and in fact //conflicted// with the use of that name on wiki. It might be reasonable to keep the others, but that specific one is problematic -- see the parent T299625: Bug: New language notice inconsistently styled across wikis <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T299625>.
