it does affect clojurescript, if they don’t have a plan to remove it they will get in big trouble later

Can you clarify what you mean for someone unfamiliar? If Closure Compiler is sticking around (and the linked issue is very clear that it will), what is it that ClojureScript needs to have a plan to remove?

So this is just the usual "Google kills projects lol" comment and not something based in any information about Closure Compiler specifically. Understood.

I don't even know what this library is (quite an ungooglable name), but I don't get it. It's open source licensed. Why not just, like, not "close" it? Just keep the code and the docs up.

Archiving it is exactly what you're asking for. The code and docs stick around, and there's a big banner at the top noting that it's not being maintained anymore.
