No, my suggestion is to look at the things in contrib and decide what to
do with them.  A few of those things will never be in core nor will they
be in ELPA, simply because they aren't eLisp.  So if contrib goes away
per your proposal, then where do these files go?  Moving to the lisp
sources, there's a bunch that look&feel like they should be in core.  We
should look at what's the holdup, fix it and move them into core.  Not
all at once, mind you.  Then there are perhaps a few files left that for
whatever reason aren't fit for core and never will be (license,
copyright, support for non-free software, whatever).  Again we should
decide what to do with those.  If nobody works on them my personal
opinion is that these should find a different home than the Org project.

That assumption may very well turn out to be invalid.  If you'd split
off something like Babel it may very well create a live community, but
fragmenting contrib into separate repos could drain any signs of life
from them.
