That's not true. In my eyes it's a big value of TYPO3 that it has been 
mostly downward compatible over all those years. Methods have become 
deprecated or obsolete but they have been kept - at least until the next 
major version.
With CSL-relations vs proper MM-relations it would not be feasible to 
support both at the same time - and almost every extension that deals 
with fe_users would break.

I agree. But looking at the v4.3 timetable I think there are more 
important tasks. Especially if you don't feel the difference in your 
code (nor in the performance).
