No because those S's don't mandate any particular algorithm; HTTPS has changed from SSL to TLS, and SSH often throws up mismatched cipher or version errors when connecting to older servers, so they could still be secure 10 years later.

I would however be fine with removing "unlimited" from the name of services which are limited, 'Simple' from protocols which don't need subjective comments about their complexity, 'Ultimate' and 'Supreme' from the names of things which are neither the last nor best, etc.
