I don't think it was actually removed. Unlike other commands that aren't in the game it tells you to "try again" and after doing it several times the cardboard cutout was spawned in front of the base door and a few satellites.
I think it's great, I've actually been jump scared because of it. Tried it again and one spawned in front of the garage door. They show up where you least expect them now. Be on the lookout!
