I think that ship has sailed. According to [1], 2.28.x will be supported
until the end of 2024, so it will be EOL during the bookworm stable period.

Would you be open to package 3.x for experimental so ITPs depending on it can
progress?

If you intend to have 2.x around for longer, maybe a separate source package
(mbedtls3 ?) is necessary to allow packaging them in parallel.
