They are not getting rid of the 'classic' access tokens (at least not yet). I think this new feature is geared more towards organizations where credential rotation has to happen for audit/policy/regulatory reasons anyway; it's probably nice to have GitHub ensuring that you can't have a policy violation while also nagging a credential owner if a credential is about to expire.
