Do the python type checkers / linters / whatever have the ability to warn or error on calling certain functions? That would be nice to eventually enforce migration over to the newer functions that only take a t-string template
Turns out my editor (vscode) and typechecker (pyright) saw that `datetime.utcnow()` was marked as deprecated (I know one can use the `@deprecated` decorator from Python 3.13 or `__future__` to do this; I think it was done another way in this particular case) and therefore rendered it as struck through.
And it taught me A) that `utcnow()` is deprecated and B) how to mark bits of our internal codebase as deprecated and nudge our developers to use the new, better versions if possible.
I'm thinking in the general case, but motivated by this example of a 3rd party function that accepts a SQL query as a string, and we'd like everywhere in our codebase to stop using that and instead use the 3rd party function that accepts the query as a t-string
