With panel nodes now OOTB, the experimental expander can be removed/hidden IMO, unless there is something else planned to be added. What do you think? @achintyabhat @mjkkirschner @aparajit-pratap

Oh I also noticed TSpline is still in experimental as well, it's hidden for now. I don't know if there is a task for it, should I also remove it?

PreferenceViewModel.cs

        /// <summary>
        /// Controls if the TSpline nodes experiment toggle is visible from feature flag
        /// TODO: remove this public property in Dynamo 4.0 and archive the feature flag
        /// </summary>
        public bool IsTSplineNodesExperimentToggleVisible
        {
            get
            {
                return false;
            }
        }

I would remove it. Seems like dead code.

I agree, we should at the most hide it from the UI. I would keep the UI and basic infrastructure around for future proofing for features that may come in the future that we may wish to treat in the same way - i.e., an initial experimental baking period.
