Well, that's what we ended up with. GnuPG has also been emitting
LibrePGP packets by default for some years by now, so it's not just
something that's coming soon, it's already here. And on the flip side,
support of OpenPGP v6 is fairly complete in most big implementations and
everyone is moving on to PQC, although none emit v6 by default yet as
far as I'm aware. There are some comparison charts here:

To give you a starting point, there is a comparison of OpenPGP and
LibrePGP from a technical and spec management perspective here:
