The main OSM website/database shouldn't. it is for *current* data.

https://www.openhistoricalmap.org was design specifically for the
purpose of representing old data.
I'd be happy for a mass transfer to it of out of date data.
The question with ephemeral data is, at what point in time do you
refrain from adding info?
I live in a historical Roman city. It would be clogged up with old
infrastructure if everything was added.
