On a fresh install of F34 Server I see this:

# LANG=C dnf list installed \*yum\*
Installed Packages
yum.noarch                      4.7.0-1.fc34                   @updates

# rpm -ql yum
/usr/bin/yum
/usr/share/man/man8/yum.8.gz

# ls -l /usr/bin/yum
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 5 13. Mai 16:35 /usr/bin/yum -> dnf-3*

So, there's pretty little "yummy" stuff there. And what is there is not
much more than a pointer to dnf.
It seems, the switch to dnf you asked about has basically already happened.
