Not forbidden (they're just functions, we do nothing to protect them),
just discouraged. It could be that the function was removed/renamed in
3.2 dev cycle, and so you need to port your extension to the new
interface.

(In 3.3.2, actually the gjs class framework makes all class properties
and functions non-configurable, so you cannot delete them, but it
should still be possible to modify them)
