Comment:

 Noting that this format was never really supported as stated in the
 DocBlock:

 > The following directives can be used in the query format string:
 >  %d (integer)
 >  %f (float)
 >  %s (string)
 >  %% (literal percentage sign - no argument needed)
 >
 > All of %d, %f, and %s are to be left unquoted in the query string and
 they need an argument passed for them.
 > Literals (%) as parts of the query must be properly written as %%.
 >
 > This function only supports a small subset of the sprintf syntax; it
 only supports %d (integer), %f (float), and %s (string).
 > Does not support sign, padding, alignment, width or precision
 specifiers.
 > Does not support argument numbering/swapping.
