I think the faster and simplest thing to do is to offer QGIS LTR 
installers from the old (v1) OSGeo4W repository ("continued with 
previous dependencies") and avoid to recommend the QGIS LTR installers 
from the new (v2) OSGeo4W (as it is now in the qgis.org download page).

AFAIK, the OSGeo4W v1 QGIS LTR 3.16.12 didn't suffer from the SIP issue 
nor the OSGeo4W v1 QGIS LTR 3.16.13 suffers from the CRS issue.
