nothing
Schema impact:
low
Instance model impact:
non existant

Research direction
Read the proposal and the linked “Towards a technology-independent IFC” wiki page, then locate the schema definitions for IfcExternalSpatialStructureElement and its subtype. Confirm how the proposed removal relates to IfcSpace.EXTERNAL, IfcFacility, and IfcFacilityPart, and document whether the schema and instance-model impacts match the issue before marking the deprecation complete.
