So good news, asciidoc(-py3) is already using FOP as second option for generating PDF files.
So it just need to be set as default option instead of dblatex and all should be fine.

| From asciidoc perspective, dblatex is quite important for generating PDF

| | An x86_64 scratch build with this change completed successfully:
