I'm developing an application that depends on the scantxoutset RPC method in Bitcoin Core. However, the official documentation includes the following warning:
EXPERIMENTAL warning: this call may be removed or changed in future releases.
Is there any indication from Bitcoin Core developers or past discussions on whether scantxoutset is likely to be removed or stabilized in future releases?

Reset to default 2The scantxoutset RPC method is stable and can be used in production. The "EXPERIMENTAL" warning in the documentation appears to be outdated.
According to this merged PR in Bitcoin Core, the warning was supposed to be removed after a Bitcoin Core developer meeting in 2021. The PR states:
Remove old warning per IRC wallet meeting discussion at this log
This RPC was merged 3 years ago in #12196.
