And I would very much prefer to remedy the issue of having packages still
relying on python2 rather than thinking about removing OpenSSL 1.1.1 that's
still supported upstream and many packages depend on it.

Unfortunately that effort is moot, it's really not possible to

python2.7 compatible with OpenSSL 3.0.0, I mean even the latest Python
versions are not 100% compatible for various reasons.
In trying to make it compatible there are also ABI changes introduced,
it's not only about having the tests pass. The ssl module is already
complex enough in backporting changes from the master Python branch to
previous 3.x versions, doing that for 2.7 without a full fledged effort
from SSL and the Python C API experts guarantee there's gonna be
regressions. And that's not even taking into account the security
implications of randomly cherry-picking commits just to have the package
compile.
