I'm not sure what your question is, you might be asking:

1) Do I need to be aware of prepare threshold with V2 connections?

No, prepareThreshold only affects V3 protocol connections. Prior to the
8.0 release there was rudimentary support for converting
PreparedStatements to SQL level PREPARE/EXECUTE that worked with V2, but
that was ripped out in the major 8.0 rewrite and V2 always interpolates
parameters into the query and executes it directly.

2) Can't I use prepare threshold with V3 instead of switching to V2 and
achieve the same effect?

No, in V3 all prepared statements are prepared regardless of the
threshold. The difference is in the level of "preparedness" by using
either a named or unnamed statement at the protocol level. See my
previous email for more details on that topic.
