Local site content is not managed by Fedora. That's a local user's content.
Similar to generic dynamic libraries in /usr/local/lib64.

Because new Perl is not binary compatible to the old one. If Fedora did not
change local site path for each new Perl, Fedora delivered software could
crash in the user-supplied incompatible code.

Perl maintainers pondered whether to keep a pure-Perl site code, comparing to
a binary XS code, in an invariant path, and decided to keep them togegher in
a changing path. The reason is a possible unsatisfied dependencies. E.g.
a pure-Perl module requires an XS module.

Unfortunatelly Fedora cannot provide any tools for automatically rebuilding
the user's site content because Fedora has no clue how and were from the user
populated the site content.
