Its hard to deprecate it. Even if the usage is low. There might be some pain for the user to have the feature pulled out from him/her. If you do not deprecate, you end up with gloat

So whats wrong with this approach
1) Too much clutter. The hallmark of great UI is simplicity. How can u have simplicity, If you have a huge bunch of features, most of which do not get used ?
2) The customer is left with a bad taste in his mouth … With most of the stuff not working right, the first time. This hurts your reputation too.
3) nobody wants to be a lab rat …
