Why this is deprecated

Obsolete message: Elmah.Error is from the deprecated ELMAH library. This Rokstep.Elmah.Shims keeps your existing code working on .NET 6/8. For new code, use Microsoft.Extensions.Logging with structured logging and an error-tracking sink such as Sentry, Application Insights, or OpenTelemetry. See https://dev.rokstep.eu/migrations/RKSEL0001 for migration guidance.
