First, sorry for missing exactly the same suggestion on oldwikisource's scriptorium. I didn't see it among the sea of "Tech News" posts.

I support too. It will allow oldwikisource to share the same
configuration as language-based
Wikisources. But we should really ask sysadmins if it's possible.
Feel free to open a bug [1] asking if it's possible to move oldwikisource
to mul.wikisource.org
and to add it in the "wikisource" site group.
The second step would be to open a formal vote on oldWikisource.

Well, I've asked the initial question as bug 62717https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62717. I don't file many bug reports, so hopefully that came out correctly.

Do you have some URLs about that. It's seems pretty illogical to me. On all the other wikisources, there is bilingual books (and trilingual,quadrilingual, etc. multilingual books). On the breton wikisource, nearly 50% of the 145 books are bilingual ; moving them on old/mul.ws would be a damn loss :(
No URLs that I can recall off-hand. I just remember it in connection with something I was working on (a translation of the Domesday Book) which is almost exactly half Latin and half English. Splitting books between projects has come up in a few other cases too.
