We would have to discuss this as it would be quite a high maintenance burden to 
actually guarantee this. The original intent of this migration capability is 
for people to do a gradual rollover migration to a Pekko cluster which implies 
shutting down the Akka nodes.

Having to maintain both Akka and Pekko nodes indefinitely was not part of that 
original intention and historically we have had the issue where while we 
implemented these migration features, we didn't garner a lot of feedback about 
said features. Ontop of this, having to maintain such compatibility means we 
cannot introduce changes that may break Akka nodes in possible future releases 
of Pekko even though aside from migration, Akka is not something explicitly 
support.
