As far as I can tell, those always required special treatment via %pretrans scriptlets or something, and even the method currently recommended by the Packaging Guidelines seems to be broken due to the way dnf / RPM verifies validity of transactions. Additionally, that "special" handling will probably need to stay in the RPM package's .spec file for years, given that upgrades from Fedora 34 to 36 will need to be supported.
