Deprecation of SQL Trace and SQL Server Profiler?

I saw this on LinkedIn. Is it true and where can we get more info? Gracias 

SQL Trace and SQL Server Profiler are deprecated. The Trace namespace that contains the Microsoft SQL Server Trace and Replay objects are also deprecated."

We've all seen the warning above. Use Extended Events instead.

Profiler and SQL Server Trace are hard tools to replace. Especially when you've been using them for years. And learned how to use them well enough to not bring down a production server in the middle of the day.
