slapd.conf is deprecated, and support for it will be removed in

Back in 2013 Howard confirmed that 2.5 will still support static
config (slapd.conf). And we don't see 2.5 yet.
I would say "easy and more controllable" are not measurable,
nor are they relevant.
Personally I strongly prefer static configuration because it's so
much easier to control it with the usual idempotent config
management techniques (puppet, ansible, etc.) which you need for
the rest of the system anyway.
I'd even state that it's a strong plus of OpenLDAP compared to
other LDAP server implementations to still provide this
configuration method.
Ciao, Michael.
