FWIW I think that's long overdue, and understand your worry.

I, too, understand your worry, but I also understand why there will be a lot of pushback against removing it.

A lot of equipment, perfectly good equipment, expensive equipment, but old equipment requires it.  Most of it is behind a security appliance so there's no real risk is negligible if indeed it's not actually zero.

Removing DSS removes management access to the equipment and the only reason is a pedantic complaint that DSS is trivially broken.

Please don't break equipment over well-meaning pedantry.
