I've got mixed feelings about this. Google's frequent "killings" have caused me to never trust them or want to buy in to their products.
But at the same time I think that it is good to "honor" "dead" products. Those products encompassed millions of hours of blood and sweat and toil and so on. I don't know the best way to memorialize that but sanitizing them from history entirely ain't it.
A lot of us got there a few years ago. So the perverse incentive is that many of the people who would shun them have already, so why not keep misbehaving?
