This is correct, it should have been added to the test back in JDK 13 when the change was made. Not sure it is worthwhile retrofitting this though. The main purpose of adding to the VMDeprecatedOptions test is to validate newly deprecated flags. On a related note though should FlightRecorder finally be obsoleted and targeted for removal?
