Maybe we should create a tool to list features scheduled for removal, and open a discussion to check each removal? I don't know if a tool is necessary. We could have a meta issue or text file somewhere to track what's to be removed in a certain version.

Maybe a specific PEP that list all removals that happened, those that will happen next version, and next ones after that?

IOW, a single point where one can see which features/details will fly away and when.

Probably it's a good idea to see everything at once and evaluate if "we're removing too many things at once", and have a better deprecation/removal cadence.
