Comment (by ryelle):

 In the PR for #54489, I tried a pass at specifically marking things
 deprecated (and why). For example,

 {{{
 /* @deprecated 5.9.0 -- Button removed from panel. */
 .wp-core-ui .welcome-panel .button.button-hero {
 ...
 }}}

 You can see more deprecated comments [https://github.com/WordPress
 /wordpress-develop/pull/2049/files in the PR itself], the new markup is
 much simpler so it cuts down a lot of CSS. I went with this format because
 it can eventually be read by a script, with the version and description
 separated with double hyphen (inspired by [https://stylelint.io/user-guide
 /ignore-code/ stylelint's ignore comments]).

 I'm not totally sure how it could be used just yet, but I think setting up
 a format like this would be a good start. Even if it never ends up
 scripted, at least having a note about what CSS is still relevant is
 useful.
