> It is not used because no directory authority defines
`RecommendedPackages` but it doesn't mean we can't use it in the future.

> We can deprecate it for sure if we do not use it. It would be a simple
code removal and render the option `OBSOLETE()`. I believe that as long as
we make sure no dirauth adds a `RecommendedPackages` then we can avoid a
consensus method about "not voting for this anymore" ... Might not be the
proper way to do things though ;).
We can stop voting for the packages lines immediately.
Removing package lines from the consensus requires a proposal and a new
consensus method.
It can be a very short proposal:
