They were not removed: they were obsoleted.
When we mark a feature obsolete, it *is* a (last) call for discussion
before we remove it.

So go ahead, and argue away to defend those generalized vars you think
we should keep.  Make those arguments concrete, tho: those 38 generalized
vars are pretty much all independent from each other, so each one should
be debated on its own merits.
