That seems to also be the case for Fedora:
sh-5.1$ dnf provides "*site-lisp/asymptote/asy-mode.el"
symptote-2.81-1.fc36.x86_64 : Descriptive vector graphics language
Repo : @System
Matched from:
Other : *site-lisp/asymptote/asy-mode.el

I do not think this is a good idea:
- I am not involved in the development of asymptote, so this solution
would put maintenance of ob-asymptote.el beyond my reach.
- I have no idea whether developers of Asymptote have any interest in
Org.
- Comparing to another language: what is the situation e.g. with
Haskell? We have ob-haskell.el (thanks to Lawrence Bottorff). In my
distro at least, I have Haskell mode installed separately. Should we
then move ob-haskell.el into the package supplying Haskell mode?
- Somehow I also think that the proposed solution would be close to the
idea of including ob-C.el into a C compiler distribution.
All the best,
Jarmo
