Description
.updates() is better in every way. Having two ways to do the same is also confusing. We cannot remove .observe() for a long time, but maybe we could add availability annotations so that apps that target macOS 10.15+ (and equivalent iOS/tvOS/watchOS) gets a deprecation message.

Research direction
Start by locating the .observe() and .updates() declarations and checking the package's macOS, iOS, tvOS, and watchOS deployment targets. Done means apps targeting macOS 10.15 and equivalent platform versions receive a deprecation message for .observe() while .updates() remains available.
