Superior doesn’t imply the other is “not good”.

This doesn’t really mean anything.

That’s your opinion, but so far you’ve given no evidence.
As the other commenter said: OpenVPN is just TLS via OpenSSL. Yes, at some points it has used now-insecure algorithms, but so have web browsers and most everything else. One wouldn’t configure OpenVPN today the way they did in 2001.
Not that it necessarily means much, but AWS Client VPN is just OpenVPN. AWS, GCP, & Azure all support IPsec VPN which dates back to the ’90s. Just because something has been around for a long time doesn’t mean it hasn’t evolved its cryptography at all.
