The only way I know how to kill it: make it more profitable for brokers to use MT5 and not MT4.
1) Increase MT5 quality in relation to MT4 and other platforms from the competition:
2) Transition smoothly
or...
"Restructure" MT5 terminals and servers to be compatible with every latest MT4 indicator and EA, and slowly kill MT4 compatibility.
This is the Microsoft way (e.g.: windows 8 compatible with windows 2000 apps). It's shitty. Please don't do it..

Good points. MT4 and MT5 are nearly of the same age, despite the sharp discussions there are not many differences to find. Most of the discussed arguments in favour of any of them are not strong enough either for the traders nor for the coders.
In other word - kill both MT4 and MT5 and create a new MTX, which reflects the state of technology of the 2017 year.
MT5 server is much cheaper, in an attempt to promote it heavily.
You seem you actually do not know much about the MT4, quite high level of misinformation in your posts.
I don't know if MT5 server is cheaper or not, but, if it was, you'd think everyone would be migrating to it in droves. But you don't. You still see a lot of shops offering MT4 ONLY. Especially here in the U.S.
So, if MT5 is cheaper; there must be a more compelling reason.

Yes, there definitively is. MT5 was not presented to be an upgrade, but rather to be an alternative. Currently it is presented as a complete replacements of MT4. However the MT4 and MT5 are currently so close in functionality, that the migration cost exceeds benefits.

I am wondering what functionalities you are expecting for the platforms to be different ?
MT5 has already a lot more functionalities than MT4.
