MAtlab symbolic toolbox and removal of Mupad interface

Dear all I use units defined in Mupad Interface from Matlab live documents like this

mV = sym('unit::mvolt');

Warning: Support of strings that are not valid variable names or define a number will be removed in a future release. To create symbolic expressions, first
create symbolic variables and then use operations on them.

This is a pretty good solution and i dont want to use the clunky syntax evalin(symengine...) to use Mupad symbolic stuff

What is Mathworks thinking aboout the solution to this issue? What happens when they remove the syntax i use ?

Starting R2017a, units are available in MATLAB via Symbolic Math Toolbox. See:

[SL: fixed a typo. This functionality was added in release R2017a not R2017b.]
