On [1] it says:

  "The latest stable version is the 1.1.1 series. This is also
  our Long Term Support (LTS) version... All users of 1.0.2 and
  1.1.0 are encouraged to upgrade to 1.1.1 as soon as possible."

and on [2] it says:

  "OpenSSL 1.1.1 is API and ABI compliant with OpenSSL 1.1.0 so
  most applications that work with 1.1.0 can gain many of the
  benefits of TLSv1.3 simply by dropping in the new OpenSSL
  version."

Our main goals are to stay on a LTS version and to utilize TLSv1.3 so
stepping to 1.1.0 was more useful to us in the long term than
stepping to 1.0.2.
