That does seem to be the case.

A file search for exo-preferred-applications in bullseye still brings up exo-utils,
but that package's file list has no exo-preferred-applications:
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=exo-preferred-applications&mode=path&suite=testing&arch=any
https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/amd64/exo-utils/filelist

exo-open comes as a dependency of Thunar file manager, but without xfce-settings (presumably) it loses some utility, for example 'exo-open --launch TerminalEmulator' just brings up an error box "Could not find fallback TerminalEmulator application".
