While it's true that the use of global_start was deprecated, development of vb4 is done except for minor fixes and php version upgrades, so I think it's pretty clear at this point that it will never be removed. It would be ridiculous at this point to release a new version of vb4 with that hook removed.
Also, hook global_bootstrap_init_start is called inside a function, and that could have an effect on how the script works, depending on what it does.
