As a complete non-expert:

On the one hand, looks like decent cleanup. (IIRC, engines in particular will not be missed).

On the other hand, breaking compatibility is always a tradeoff, and I still remember 3.x being... not universally loved.

Finally encrypted client hello support \o/

Is this something that we can enable "today" or is it going to take 12 years for browsers and servers to support?

CloudFlare has supported it since 2023: https://blog.cloudflare.com/announcing-encrypted-client-hell... Firefox has had it enabled by default since version 119: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/faq-encrypted-client-he... so you can use it today.
