#22063 suggested adding a banner stating "this version is really old" but modifying rust after the fact wasn't well liked.

Also one thing they have in Django docs, is a box with more information when something has changed recently. Like this:
Triage: this is significantly less of a problem today. MIT's docs went away, and now that things are stable, the most that happens is that someone misses a newer API that could be useful to them. Given that this issue has had no comment in the last year, I'm gonna give it a close.
