This is classic WordPress dev-team bullshit, to be honest. They get some hairbrained coder idea that "this is conceptually like a menu so the feature is redundant and we're taking it out" even though everybody uses it and relies on it and the menus don't have all the features that the links management stuff did. Stuff like this is why people dread every major upgrade release. "What kind of damage did they do to their core functionality this time?" Love WordPress, hate the dev team's contempt for users.

Yeah, it's not hard to get the feature back -- but there's no warning, no explanation, and no help for the lost and confused.
