They will be gone not because they are confusing and people didn't know what 
they mean. They are being replaced so that we have a different workflow that 
should make the lives of people doing feature freezes and branching easier.

None of the workflow changes when it comes to the branch containing the next 
version.

That's not the reason. See above.

That's a poor argument.
