So they are sun-setting it 12 years after having introduced its replacement.

I think there is a parallel with the .net Framework. .Net core is a similar breaking change (not the syntax of the language but very much so in term of core libraries and project types). I wouldn't be surprised if .Net full followed a similar timeline.

.Net 5 will be reuniting the brands (Though based on .net core). So the Core brand will be discontinued. Read more about it here: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/net-core-is-the-future...

The brand is one thing but your project will still be incompatible.
