I think is a good idea, but we will need to introduce the deprecation notice in 5.x before merging this PR 🤔

Not bad, but also just to be clear it is not necessary in the tests.

Status is set using this.status(status), which performs type validation (#4212). Earlier status is used to get a status message for body, but passing something invalid there is not a problem if an error is thrown before it's sent.

Validations are being added, this would ideally be for Express 6. Maybe sending a deprecation message would be great, what do you think?
