It feels a bit wrong that it supports old MacOS CR though. Isn't that thoroughly obsolete, and encouraging its use only going to prolong its death, making it harder for everyone else to have to keep supporting it?

You could say the same about using CRLF instead of just LF.

No because it already supported CRLF so that would be a step backwards for CRLF users. CR is a new feature so it would be no worse than before if they didn't add it.
