There comes a time at which "deprecated" has to turn into "no longer supported". Unfortunately, there are inevitably some people left who that will inconvenience, but without that, systems collapse under the weight of providing legacy support for obsolete, rarely-used protocols.
If said obsolescence causes a security risk as well, there's really no question to be had; has to be done.

Was support for legacy TLS temporarily discontinued or something?
