Sure.

Remove all calls to it? Or don't add new calls? I'm not sure I understand. I
don't want to introduce a bug that doesn't already exist as an intermediate
step in a plan that eventually fixes the bug some other way, but maybe that's
not what's going on here.

A separate bug might help. But given the title, I'm worried. As far as I know
we don't have a reentrancy problem that needs to be fixed. So a bug saying we
need to fix it seems a little strange.
