It would mean legacy alg support would not exist for Node.js binary
distributions, but I'm still figuring out how many legacy algs we
support.

How hard we'd push back on that would depend on how hard our users
push back... but we won't know that until ossl3 makes it into a new
major of node, probably spring 2021, when it might be too late to
change anything.
