Hi @amosehiguese. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a etcd-io member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

/ok-to-test

Does it make sense to deprecate backwards (or, in other words, backport this deprecation)?

"backport this deprecation" would be the right way to put it.

Thank you for the correction

Yes, I think so. We should discourage users to use it as earlier as possible.
