Alex, would you mind taking a look at the docs/NEWS/What's New changes? I feel the sentences grew to be a little bit too complex.

Also, the text in the deprecation warning is perhaps a little bit too long 😶

I can't think of a case where a warning would be better than an exception, but so be it.

Are you sure about that? The API itself is not deprecated, we're just changing it. I'm not sure what's the recommended practice here.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I feel like ideally this notice would be phrased along the lines of "X behaviour/practice is now deprecated" rather than "a DeprecationWarning is now emitted". That would be more to-the-point, and it would also work more naturally with this directive (X behaviour/practice is deprecated in 3.12, and will be removed entirely in 3.14).

But I was struggling to come to with a concrete suggestion for how to reword these notices :/

(The whatsnew and NEWS entries look great btw, it's just the notices in the API docs that feel slightly clunky to me)

Yes, but documented as deprecated and emitting a DeprecationWarning are similar, but not equal, things 🙂 With the former, we don't need to emit a warning in the code.

To your original question, btw: I think it's pretty standard to use .. deprecated or .. deprecated-removed, even if it's just a particular usage of an API, rather than the API itself. See e.g. https://docs.python.org/3.12/library/asyncio-policy.html#asyncio.DefaultEventLoopPolicy, where the directive is used even though the class itself hasn't been deprecated at all; or #19867, which deprecated just a specific parameter; or lots of other examples in our docs 🙂

Aight! I'll try to reword it.

I've updated it to use deprecated-removed, and I put in an extra line regarding what happens in 3.14. I'm too tired to reword the text 🙂
