Yup. Just like the removal of confirm/prompt that had vendor support and was immediately rushed. Thankfully to be indefinitely postponed.

Here's Google's own doc on how a feature should be removed: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RC-pBBvsazYfCNNUSkPqAVpS...

Notice how "unilateral support by browser vendors" didn't even look at actual usage of XSLT, where it's used, and whether significant parts would be affected.

Good times.
