Isn't that just postfix config.  Btw *i* have no problem with

  smtpd_tls_ask_ccert = no
  smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes
  smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1
  #SMART The next is usually nice but when using client certificates
  smtpd_tls_received_header = no
  smtpd_tls_fingerprint_digest = sha256
  smtpd_tls_mandatory_protocols = >=TLSv1.2
  smtpd_tls_protocols = $smtpd_tls_mandatory_protocols
  # super modern, forward secrecy TLSv1.2 / TLSv1.3 selection..
  tls_high_cipherlist = EECDH+AESGCM:EECDH+AES256:EDH+AESGCM:CHACHA20
  smtpd_tls_mandatory_ciphers = high
  smtpd_tls_mandatory_exclude_ciphers = TLSv1

^ This works in practice without any noticeable trouble.
(But then i again i do not have to make money from that or my
customers who must talk to ten year old refrigerators.)

  # ..otherwise that
  #smtpd_tls_mandatory_ciphers = high
  #smtpd_tls_mandatory_exclude_ciphers =
  #   aNULL, eNULL, EXPORT, DES, RC4, MD5, PSK, aECDH,
  #   EDH-DSS-DES-CBC3-SHA, EDH-RSA-DES-CDB3-SHA, KRB5-DES, CBC3-SHA
  smtpd_tls_ciphers = $smtpd_tls_mandatory_ciphers
  smtpd_tls_exclude_ciphers = $smtpd_tls_mandatory_exclude_ciphers

Ie.  This can only be a postfix config issue, no.
