Meaning of 'svg: the key will be deprecated in future' in given context?

I am finding the following guidance confusing:

The svg version replaces the need for a 1x, 1.5x, and 2x version, but should follow the same nominal size guidelines, fitting within 135px wide and 155px tall when resized to 135px wide. The key will be deprecated in future and its use is not recommended.

SVG can fulfil the need of three other keys, so do users need to use the three other keys, or do they need to prepare for SVG being deprecated? (It is hard to believe the SVG is being deprecated given this.)

There's something confusing about all the text. The page needs rewriting, as actually $wgLogos is easy to understand, its just that the page makes it seem complicated. Also I can understand the need for having more sophisticated logo control, but the simpler single image method $wgLogo should have been left and not deprecated. It's just quicker and simpler especially for personal wiki's and so forth.
