'At some point however clientLogin became a thing which allowed support for SSL encryption of OSCAR messages, so when that's supported I guess that will solve your issue.'

need to get the AIM 6+ clients to talk to a .net ssl socket before worrying about that..

unfortunately it's not that simple. The server has supported SSL since 2018 and pidgin will happily connect to it with SSL, but pidgin is also very friendly when it comes to the encryption protocol, and doesn't seem to care much about if its SSL 1/2/3/TLS or what the certificate is. trying to connect with an official AIM client throws an exception on the socket with a failure to negotiate a protocol error.

'negotiate a protocol error', sounds like its asking for a packet. That is how a server negotiates, but may just sound like it.
