Deprecate the original post numbering system

With the guid system for posts, I can't think of any further use for the original pod-specific post numbering system that starts with 1 on each pod and numbers posts chronologically from then on.
I propose to deprecate this numbering system in favour of the guid, so that no new content is assigned this additional numbering system. Obviously, existing posts that have already been assigned a pod-specific post number should keep that number so that existing links using the number will still work. But I this numbering system should stop being assigned to future content.
Is there any reason to keep this numbering system in addition to the guid system?

Any action to report on this?
