At a quick glance, I don't see obsoletes, provides, or conflicts in
the Fedora spec file, so it wasn't a direct replacement per se.  It
was rust-exa being retired and rust-eza being added, which didn't
happen in the same release.  It's up to the relevant package
maintainers (Fabio and the Rust SIG) to decide if they want to retire
rust-exa from EPEL 9 and/or add rust-eza to EPEL 9.

If retirement of rust-exa is the chosen route, an unmaintained
upstream can certainly be viewed as the underlying reason why a
maintainer would have "no desire" to keep maintaining the package in
EPEL.

Here is a general guide for requesting packages in EPEL (tldr; file a bugzilla).
