Why would a maintainer drop support for the regular package after they've copied it into a module (or modules)? If, as Neal says, "module-only" packages can't be used as build dependencies for regular packages their package is now useless to any developer who isn't using modules.
I'm not expecting an answer from Emmanuel. It would, though, be interesting to hear from the maintainers of the orphaned packages.
