I don't think they need to do something special for Emacs≥27, instead
they should install those packages without touching load-path but
instead making sure package.el sees those installed packages so *it* can
activate those packages properly (adding them to `load-path` and loading
their <pkg>-autoloads.el files, all while obeying `package-load-list`).
I'd be surprised if their system doesn't introduce bugs in
Emacs<27 already.
