Deprecation warning for .Site.Author: confusing replacement advice

I just built my site with newly released version 0.124.0 and got this deprecation warning:

INFO  deprecated: .Site.Author was deprecated in Hugo v0.124.0 
and will be removed in a future release.
Use taxonomies instead.

Shouldn’t the solution given should to this be: Use .Site.Params.Author instead?
At least that’s what this comment proposes.

It depends. If you feel strongly about it log an issue.

Perhaps a new page in the docs on how to configure authors?

@Arif Good idea. Would you mind logging an issue in the documentation repository?

Done:

Done (sorry. I used a throwaway account)
