I am aware of Yasnippet, have it installed, but haven't used for a long
time. The old easy template system just worked and I used it dozens of
times a day.

The previous function was very straightforward and simple, the

I agree with that sentiment. In parallel to removing that feature, it would
be needed to add details in the manual on how to restore that functionality
using other means.

Given the lack of time, I just restored for works for me in my personal
config:
https://github.com/kaushalmodi/.emacs.d/commit/9aa3be89a2f8dce3f2aa57f98e0a2f38fdca4c6b

I just like the convenience of hitting "<s" and let the template insertion
logic do its thing.

Let me know what you think.
