I am myself planning to go through the old messages to get a better understanding of the differences between the two syntax and to learn whether there are still any reasons to use the old syntax.
There are none. The last one was compatibility with other dialects, but the compatibility was not 100% unlike what you get with gst-convert.
There are still some pieces using old-style syntax in the GNU Smalltalk source, they're mostly there to provide coverage for the parsing code.
