That seems to be the cleanest solution, right? Not sure, but I guess we
could even mandate a certain version that is compatible with emacs-27 if
need be and for emacs-27 setups...
emacs-27 is old, OK... but still used in older systems :-)

I guess we can add transient.el to dependencies.
This will handle ELPA installations.

However, installing from git is not easy. Our build system is not
designed to work with third-party packages.

Maybe we don't need to be so drastic ;-) transient is in elpa and melpa. 
Including a note in the docs for emacs-27 to install it from either 
(they are also installing org from a package repo, I guess) may 
circumvent this "issue".


Just My .2 cents
