Sorry.
My explanation was poor.
I'd like "-dgs-load-fonts" and "-dgs-load-lily-fonts" to be deprecated.
If I understand correctly,
the both options use a ghostscript language extension ".loadfont".
Ghostscript developers seem to want us
to not use the ghostscript language extension.

As they said, to "use the documented method for loading fonts",
the both options can not be used.
So I propose that the both options are not used.
