The intention was to make ascii exporter aware about alphabetical lists
instead of behaving in undefined way.

Yes.

There is nothing to obsolete.
ox-ascii did not process alphabetical lists in any way, which was a bug.
All other exporters convert alphabetical lists into numbered lists.
The bug has been fixed, and the behaviour is now consistent with the rest
of exporters.

If you wish alphabetical lists to be exported specially, feel free to
post a feature request.
