Since when?  Every Ubuntu system I have has both mii-tool and ethtool
installed...

And mii-tool is quite a bit older than ethtool is.

Not that I really want to get into a "emacs/vi" debate about ethtool
or mii-tool, but where did you get your info that ethtool was being
deprecated by a far older tool?

Even the Linux Foundation said that mii-tool was obsoleted by ethtool:

So just curious where you're getting that info.
