Yes.

The other alternative is lack of interop.

Which browser dropped support for "text-decoration: blink"? I don't
know of any.
In a browser that dropped support for it, this markup:
<span style="text-decoration: underline; text-decoration: blink">
Text
</span>
the text would be underlined. In a browser that supports it per the
CSS2.1 spec, the text would not be underlined. It may or may not blink;
the spec says:
blink
Text blinks (alternates between visible and invisible).
Conforming user agents may simply not blink the text.
