Esri's use of "deprecate" is consistent with the rest of the software industry. They try to be as explicit as possible (hence the update to include the 10.2.2 service pack), but predicting the future is notoriously hard, especially 2-3 years out, when most deprecation notices are produced.
I disagree with your assertion that it would be possible to deprecate something at the version in which it was removed....There is no hard-and-fast "n vs n+1" rule in the deprecation market, yet it is the minimum effective notice that can be given
Imagine if aircraft manufacturers deprecated landing gear in an announcement that caused the wheel axles to disintegrate.
