I notice that there isn't a word there about who will be responsible for
fixing the packages which depend on LAM currently. You can't just remove
a package without some sort of early warning and a plan to fix the
fall-out.
It has now been unblocked. Given the maintiner's original wish to have
it removed, I suspect it needs a new maintainer.
