Orphan Message Cleanup Approaches

Hi all.

Recently, I have noticed Scott Roth's mission to resolve issues with Orphaned messages with a lot of focus on prevention, and I envy that level of dedication.

Not wanting to be left out, this has sparked an interest in checking my environments for orphaned messages. Amongst a few different posts on the subject, I came across this post from Suriya Murugan in 2016 that included an interesting class in a Github Gist that seems to be built to do a deep dive into the identification and cleanup of Orphaned Messages.

My question is - is this still considered an appropriate way of cleaning up a namespace's amassed orphaned messages? Other approaches seem to focus heavily on HL7 2.x messages, but a lot of the orphans in my environments are most likely from custom classes that contained the odd steam object without an appropriate %OnDelete classmethod included.
