Indeed compat-openssl10 really should go. If there are still packages depending on it they should be ported or dropped at this point. Openssl1.0.2 is unmaintained upstream and only critical security fixes are done in RHEL. But the team that handles them does not own the Fedora package anymore. OpenSSL 1.0 does not support things lie TLS 1.3 or system-wide crypto policies. Frankly at this point it is just a liability to continue offering it. I'll file a bugzilla to ask to retire it from rawhide.
Even if that's the case we should not just retire packages without coordinating with the dependent ones, with an exception of legal requirements.
There should be a deprecation period, Fedora change or a direct communication with the package maintainers of the dependent packages, not a direct retirement.
