This looks like a good idea to me.

Also, the MAN<sect> deprecation warning doesn't make sense to me.

MAN${a}_ALT=            it more, obsoleted by staging

DEV_WARNING+=   "${a} is deprecated, please use ${${a}_ALT}"

"MAN1 is deprecated, please use it more." Shouldn't we encourage people to use deprecated things less?

It's from D13490. I guess @mat means "it no more".

The following come from the same commit.

MLINKS_ALT=             it no more
PYDISTUTILS_INSTALLNOSINGLE_ALT=        it no more
