It could be it's some version independent noarch content that just
works fine even on latest OSes?

Can you use some "hasn't been accessed in the past 180 days" filter
for them, to see how much space could be freed without disrupting
people who for some reason still use the old content?

In any case, it'd be nice to notify the owners of those repos to give
them chance to review what they have and potentially rebuild their
content on newer buildroots, or just mark their repos "alive" and
extend the expiration for another 180 days. Or something to that
effect.

I don't use copr repos for that but i can imagine there are people who
do.
