Easy. Just use the GNOME argument: round a small enough minority down to "nobody" and then confidently claim "nobody actually uses that, and we don't want to maintain it, so we're removing it."

In order to reach that point faster, never improve the feature and make it increasingly cumbersome to use to turn potential users off it.
And that has definitely happened with XSLT. Ancient version, incomplete feature support and behaviour, terrible debugging experience…
