This is what I'm scratching my head at too. Why would it be a good thing for any OSS maintainer to slow themselves down for packages that don't want to fix deprecation warnings?

- Because that's what you signed up for as maintainer of a project used by millions.

- It's a significant piece of functionality.

- The change is trivial, not worth the cost of losing login.

In some instances Python deprecates something for six years, Flask six months.
