I'm no exim historian, but it seems it was always (in 4.x) this way.

$warn_message_delay is an expansion item. delay_warning is a main
configuration setting. One did not replace the other.

As for the documentation, it's better if you compare like with like:

delay_warning:
http://www.xmlcity.org/softwaremirror/exim/exim-html-4.20/doc/html/spec_13.html#CHAP13
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch14.html

$warn_message_delay:
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch46.html
http://www.xmlcity.org/softwaremirror/exim/exim-html-4.20/doc/html/spec_40.html
