Looks like there are multiple different things being conflated here:

The "main admin" of neither of these packages is the @crypto-team
group - groups *cannot* be the "main admin".
There are some "legacy" groups (that predate the actual concept of
"groups" AFAIK) that *act* as groups but which are normal user
accounts (for example, "java-sig") that just happen to be shared
between multiple people. Those *can* be "main admin".

Then there is the default bugzilla assignee, which *can* be a group
too, but the default bugzilla assignee is not the "main admin". Being
orphaned means that the "main admin" is "orphan", the default bugzilla
assignee is set independent of that.
