says that using the embedded server as of v5.2 is deprecated. Is this correct? If so, can we get some kind of company announcement about something like this because I've just installed without IIS at a client and told them we wouldn't be using IIS.

Yes this is correct. It was announced around the time v5.2 was first release. That would have been around May 2017.

In any case, its fine to use the embedded web server for now. It is still supported, but is no longer the recommended way of hosting Broker. Being deprecated means there are better options available and it is slated to be removed at some point so isn't a future-proof solution.
