I think also that we should remove the ext2 driver before we remove the ext3
driver.

Yes. It is logical to remove the old ext2 drive, because there are
more computers with ext3 that ext2. Ext2 is obsolete by existing
technologies.

NO, it is not logical. A vast majority of Android smartphones in the wild use ext2, as do a very significant portion of embedded systems that don't have room for the few hundred kilobytes of extra code that the ext4 driver has in comparison to ext2.
