JQueryUI deprecated in 20.1 but still available? (confusion)

Hi Support-Team

please clarify the following statement in your release notes:

"6.1.3 jQuery UI Deprecated

As of this release, jQuery UI is deprecated. Oracle recommends that customers update third-party Application Express plug-ins and custom JavaScript code to remove any jQuery UI references."

at:

https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/application-express/20.1/htmrn/index.html#HTMRN-GUID-4BCD1A37-908C-4770-8C3C-2F4F721E74A7

Does this mean you deprecate your own java_script apis like apex_message?

https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/application-express/21.2/aexjs/apex.message.html

Or - can developers still use these calls and your api will make sure it will no longer use jqueryui as soon as "your code" is updated?
