My two cents, I think it's okay to tag those old branches and delete
them, and I support option 1 as it helps create a bit of a
breadcrumb trail for future reflection.

As for how they got overlooked, I expect you're right. In the past,
well before we had any real release automation and tracking,
projects asked the Infra team to delete their old branches, and
quite often did not provide a complete list.
