Normally, I would tell you : upgrade, and see what new development offers you.
24.03 is out there for months now, and rock solid.

But .... when upgrading, everything goes up, and old stuff 'that used to work just fine' disappears. Old security issues also.
Like the openssl libraries and the functionalities it offers. Everybody want 4096 ... no 8192 bits (size !!) RSA encryption these days.

Your question is : you want the "10 bit" encryption ... euh, yeah, sorry, that was probably ditched for 'security' reasons.
After all, who (go count them) use openssl to make 'voucher' codes, and tries to make them as small as possible ?
I don't say it isn't possible anymore, but you have to dive into the open ssl doc to see what is possible.
To get the OMG experience, type :

opensll help

edit : so, for ones : downgrade way back to the version of pfSense that had the possibility to make 'small vouchers'
