Nobody got rid of Padd Richter. Except for one guy, the one who made the original post. He came up with the name "Richter+." He believes Paddy to be superior to standard tuning and has stated to me that his belief that enormous benefits would result if harmonica manufacturers were to switch to Paddy as their standard harmonica tuning. 

However, note his sweeping and rather negative characterization of the music played on standard tuning.

Richter+ tuning???? When did they get rid of Paddy Richter? Whose 
bright idea was it to change the name and for what reason was it 
changed? IMNSHO Paddy R. is the name this tuning should be kept with. 
(Yes, I know I ended a sentence with a preposition.)
