That is exactly what I meant by plugins trying to avoid the existing API end
up breaking. When that stops working in a future version, don't say I didn't
tell you so:

 This is honestly why plugins break on new versions of WP -- it's often not
> that they do something that the API doesn't provide for, it's that they do
> something the API does provide for, but don't use the API, and that's what
> breaks.
