Given the open nature of lore it should be feasible to provide

don't use, calling them obosolete.
In a project with large numger of collaborators with varying
backgrounds
that's not going to work well. There are many people working on git
using different workflows, and adding support for new workflow by
removing a number of existing ones will cause problems. The goal of
changing the forge software should be to be more open, supporting more
users with more varying workflows and needs, not less.
Totally agreed. Augmenting the traditional interfaces and workflows,
instead of declaring them obsolete and killing them, should be the way
to go. Having different options available is always good.
