I agree with this assessment.

That pgg.el no longer is the recommended way is surprising to me, and
indeed I'd never have found out if I hadn't been following this
discussion by pure chance.

So if epg.el replaced pgg.el, the former should be added to the
distribution, and the latter should be moved/renamed in a way that
makes it clear this is deprecated and may disappear in future
versions.
