Apps Script is positively ancient at this point, first released in 2009: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Apps_Script

It's one of the Google products I worry least about, mainly because there are 15+ years of existing Google Sheets documents that people have built using it at this point. I don't think even Google would lightly break THAT many of their existing (often paid) users.

Says everyone using GCP services that get deprecated.

So true, today I was trying to decide whether to use Google's Vertex vector search in a project - until I remembered Google's track record with pulling the rug on services. Made it an easy "no".
