What problem do you want to solve?

I saw you pulled in a bunch of compat utils in #397

you only actually need to do this because you support older versions of 8.x.

the latest version of 8.x has context.sourceCode and sourceCode.getScope(node)

many plugins require 8.57.1 or >=9.0.0 for this reason, since you should always be able to update to the latest 8.x if you're on 8.x.

What do you think is the correct solution?

Remove the compat utils, bump the version to latest 8.x and use the new properties directly.
