Every sentence in that section is now false.

  • "Keys created before scopes hold everything a key may hold" — a key with no recorded permissions now grants nothing, and there are zero such keys left on production.
  • "Apps connected before scopes asked for media:full" — those grants were revoked when the alias was retired, and the alias now expands to no scopes at all.

A migration note that outlives its migration describes a state nobody is in, which is worse than saying nothing. The rest of the page is unaffected.

Every sentence in it is now false. Keys with no recorded permissions no
longer hold everything a key may hold, they hold nothing, and there are
none left on production anyway. Apps that connected with media:full had
those grants revoked when the alias was retired, and the alias now
expands to no scopes at all.
