The fact that such packages are physically present is not enough - they need to implement all the needed features, and they need to be mature enough to just work out of the box. Neither of these are true today, and providers just do not work for very simple use cases like signing a UKI with a yubikey. At the very least a couple more years of development and testing is needed before they are anywhere near ready to drop support for engines, that actually do work out of the box. Not to mention third party engines that are specific to internal/private build systems - if any such system runs Fedora as the build host, they'd have to migrate to Debian/Ubuntu to keep working.
