VA Class ancestry

Working with a collaborator, they noticed that VA Class ancestry is no longer supported.

As an example, the following query now returns 0 records:

select * from vocabulary.concept c
join vocabulary.concept_ancestor ca on c.concept_id = ca.ancestor_concept_id
join vocabulary.concept cd on ca.descendant_concept_id = cd.concept_id
where c.concept_class_id = ‘VA Class’;

I think the last time this was supported was Oct/Nov 2018 but I can’t find an exact reason why it was removed and what we should be doing instead.

Scanning a few forum posts I see mention of VA Class no longer being supported or maintained.

@Christian_Reich @Dymshyts Can you offer any additional information/guidance here?
