Sorry, I went ahead with committing it. But let's continue the discussion.

Leaving the parameter when we have said it will be deprecated may be a bad practice. It has remained unused for 2 versions now when the deprecation warning was added.

The option 2 further presented a challenge with HTTPSConnection which was already using  keyword-only args for last two parameters. Moving it up in the argument list may have presented a bad case. Two changes for one.
