If we add this now, there should at least be an exit strategy to remove the code again, when OpenSSL ships with the same code, IMO.
I think it is a clear win to have the fallback implementations in cases where people either don’t have OpenSSL or don’t have a new enough OpenSSL for those implementations. Not having the fallback just makes it more difficult for people to rely on those hash functions.
