This is not a good idea and a proper transition should be done.
Is there a specific issue this is causing?

While odd, the rationale for such setup is described here:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/argon2/merge_requests/3#note_28753
If a library changes its soname all the reverse dependencies needs to be rebuild, this is happening 10 times a month in the debian archive (and there far bigger transition happening in the archive that this one)

Adding the "compatibility" package here is completely useless and is IMHO against best practices.
