With the introduction of the QueryAPI, certain methods may become redundant or less effective and therefore could be marked as deprecated, particularly if the QueryAPI offers improved performance.

It is important to note that deprecation does not imply the removal of these API functions; such actions cannot be taken, as solutions must remain backwards compatible. Instead, it indicates that these API functions should not be utilized in new implementations, and they will no longer be maintained.
