Description
Most of the time this _e() is being caught by PHPCS for escaping and validation. And I noticed all of the time this _e() function can be replaced by more secure esc_html_e or esc_attr_e. So it seems like this _e() creates a confusion with these esc_html_e and esc_attr_e. Therefore I propose to deprecate this _e().

For core, translations are inherently trusted because of various checks, including a review process for translations. This has been mentioned before in https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/30724#comment:8 so I'm going to close this as wontfix.
