Changes LGTM. Could not spot any usages of the removed files. I will skip approving, since, IMHO, a more seasoned maintainer who can bring some historical context should ideally do that.

Note that the in-review #25541 also touches `CommentChecker`. I'm perfectly fine with dropping `CommentChecker` changes in #25541 if this PR gets integrated first.
