Adrian, will you please differentiate between symbols which are
logically part of an API and symbols that were for some purpose and are

This sort of symbol removal/marking is just causing noise and confusion
without actually doing anything useful, unlike the many symbols that
genuinely were exported for some weird reason and were no longer needed.
