Yes there is! Just get rid of it. It's useless. The re-implementation from using one to the other was barely a few moments of work, and even if you want to say "well that's a breaking change" I mean, yeah? Then break it. I would be far less annoyed if a function was just removed and Xcode went "hey this is pointed at nothing, gotta sort that" rather than letting it run in a way that turns the use of authentication functionality into a landmine.



I take it you’ve never had to support a widely used publicly available API?

You might be bound to support these calls for many, many years.
