Binary packages are built with default choices for port options. These choices are fixed, and don't depend on your choice of WITH_OPENSSL_BASE=yes in ports. Also this option WITH_OPENSSL_BASE=yes should be deprecated ASAP in all ports, except maybe very few.

OpenSSL is an oddball, because USE_OPENSSL is interpreted in a weird way that it tries to detect its port presence and link with it, so standard packages are often built with base SSL which is a problem.
This has been discussed, but I am not sure of when this will be fixed.

In short, as I also mentioned before, you won't be able to get rid of OpenSSL port because some packages require it unconditionally. So the best strategy is to use OpenSSL port for everything. You will likely be successful if you build them yourself from ports, and fix places where base SSL comes into play.
