Says Documentation/RelNotes-1.5.3.txt:

Quoted 2 lines

- core.legacyheaders is no more, although we still can read objects created in a new loose object format.

Someone who doesn't know the background might mistake the 'new' as a typo, reading it as 'old' - since usually legacy stuff is removed, not reinstantiated.

Better perhaps:

- core.legacyheaders is no more, the legacy format of loose objects is again "the" format; the previously "new" format is not used anymore, although we still can read objects created in that format.
