 ### Technical Approach

 We would need to extend module output nodes to also mark values as deprecated if the user specified so. Then, the mark should
 be checked where `tofu.EvalContext` is used to evaluate expressions and blocks (i.e. `EvalContext.EvaluateBlock` and
-`EvalContext.EvaluateExpr`). The deprecation mark check must take into account the value of `deprecation-warns` flag
+`EvalContext.EvaluateExpr`). The deprecation mark check must take into account the value of `deprecation` flag
 and also it shouldn't fire if the value is used inside the module, which marked this value as deprecated.
 
 This approach would also allow us to reuse the implementation, if we want to mark more values as deprecated from different
