If you think auto won't be removed as a failed experiment, how about
"new"? Deprecated in C++20 and slated for removal in C++23.

Some more reading on the removal of pointers

TL;DR: This was a 2018 April Fool's joke.
Ouch. That must hurt.
Gosh no. I'm more stunned that only one person got it. That was an
incredibly well written post. Everyone should read it. Too many QML
users I guess.
auto will be removed though. A bad idea that cannot be fixed. So were
trigraphs and digraphs.
There is a dramatic falsehood behind the philosophy of always using the
latest and "coolest" language "features" because they get removed. How
many are compiling code forcing c++11 with deprecation warnings turned
off because they have a big codebase using std:auto_ptr.
The same will happen to auto. A bad idea that can't be fixed.
