The author thinks it is useless. Should we keep useless projects or not?
should we trust the author's judgment on what is useful or not, or go and
decide by ourselves?

That's a good suggestion, there could be an "orphaned" projects section and
in the registration form for a new project we could advise the author to first
check whether there is already an orphaned project that he could adopt, rather
than registering a new project. If we create that orphaned section, we should
also advertise it among project maintainers telling them that if they ever get
too busy to maintain a project, they should orphan them.
