In which case, r.statistics should probably be removed altogether.

It has been (almost completely) superseded by the other two modules (a
fact which is less likely to be noticed in light of the renaming).

The only functionality which isn't available via the other modules is
the mode calculation. The main reason being that the new modules
assume floating-point data (r.statistics uses r.stats which is based
upon categories), for which the concept of "mode" isn't particularly
meaningful.
