I think the former is probably the saner answer. It is less likely to
annoy people who dislike back-branch changes. And it will be
significantly less work, considering that that code has changed enough
that you won't be able to just cherry-pick a removal patch. I also fear
there's a nonzero chance of breaking stuff if you're careless about doing
the removal in one or more of the five active back branches ...
