There is a pipewire-alsa package to support alsa programs

It is but then you go through an extra layer of emulation, it's better to remove
the pulseaudio one and use the pipewire one if you remove the pulseaudio
daemon.

This should also work but again using an extra layer of emulation.

Yes, it should somehow be pulled in, how should that be done? A Suggests:
for pipewire-pulse maybe?

With updates-testing enabled here, it's much better than last month (no
more gdm being removed), but there still are a few pulseaudio direct
dependencies:
# dnf swap pulseaudio pipewire-pulseaudio --allowerasing

Dependencies resolved.

In particular I'm worried alsa programs will stop working.
Shouldn't the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio also be compatible with pipewire's
pulseaudio implementation?
(I see there's also an alsa-plugins-jack, I guess that might work but I
don't have it installed right now; or some new alsa-plugins-pipewire
should be pulled in at least to keep things working one way or another)
