Why would they do away with it. The DP is the single most potent position in the lineup. The DP/Flex actually makes a whole lot more sense than the old DH rule did in high school ball. The DP originated in college ball in '84 or so. I think ASA picked it up in '86. It is a softball standard and all of the major softball sanctioning bodies use it.
