I don't know off the top of my head whether 3.3.0 was compatible with Proj 8.0.1 or not. I don't think there's any malice involved, maybe just being conservative by the packager, or working around a test failure. Updating the GDAL Homebrew formula back to depending on proj (or proj@8) instead of proj@7 is a case of making a PR/issue to propose reverting the changes from 2bc75f84. Rob :)
