For quite a while we have had ideas and discussions about deprecating
older EAPIs - expected benefits being things like not remembering the
little variations between the six official flavours.

I would suggest adding a repoman warning for adding new ebuilds with
EAPI={1,2,3} now, turn that into an error for EAPI 1 in a short time (3
months?), then do the same for EAPI 2 a short while later with a longer
timeline (as there are substantially more ebuilds with EAPI 2)
