Hello to all, ISO 10241 "International terminology standards" has a scale of acceptability ratings comprised of: "preferred", "admitted", "deprecated", "obsolete" and "superseded". Well, I always read "deprecated" as outdated, obsolete, superseded, archaic, "was once approved, but should not used furthermore". In contrast, I see cases where someone would like to express a status "disapproved" as "We know it might be intuitive to raise such a concept and we've discussed it, but for good reason we declined it and won't discuss it again." (e.g. when a designation is not best practice in a certain context).
