In defense of deprecation, running java using a deprecated function will warn you. As for the java io stuff, it is rather unweildy. Unwieldy? It's a view of how things should be. Some people agree with it, some people don't. It's a problem with complex systems. People are more likely to agree on the simple end of life, not the more complex ones :\
