Deprecate isn't the same as depreciate, it wasn't a typo ;-)

The meaning is to play down or disapprove of something

What I meant was that FB1 still has them but there is an

be
used with caution if at all. I'm afraid you got the wrong end of the
stick.

Yes, exactly, the idea is not include them in general fleet designs, in
the
FT universe say, as they are very genre specific.
