Yes, that thread is from September 2023, more than a year before PHP 8.4's
release bringing in the --with-openssl-argon2 flag.
libargon2 and libsodium can't be relied upon to exist on most systems, but
openssl is a very different beast.

There already exists a year-old proposal to enable --with-openssl-argon2 by
default (https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/19360). It would be fair to
point out that I am thinking ahead of it, this is exploring potential and
there are plenty of subsequent problems to debate after. But whether the
openssl dependency is acceptable is the most critical one.

Cheers,
Andrey.
