> ThreadGroup.stop was deprecated since JDK 1.2, deprecated for removal in Java 18, and re-specified/degraded to throw UnsupportedOperationException unconditionally in Java 20. Early in Java 23 seems a fine time to finally remove this method. Corpus analysis of 176 million classes in 485k artifacts found residual usages in 14 artifacts, so not many.

> It would be nice if we could remove Thread.stop at the same time. Sadly there are still quite a few artifacts containing code (and in some cases tests) that reference this method. We will have to come back to this in some future release.
