Imo, yes, it's a worthy goal to get these ported so that at least gnupg(1)
doesn't land in any default install.
fyi, here's my inquiry upstrem on whether it's possible or a good idea to
try dropping gnupg1:

(come to think of it, my question there wasn't phrased all too well, but the
feedback was insightful)
answer: probably not a good idea.
So, that leaves consolidating/standardizing on gnupg2, as something still
worthwhile.
