It sounds to me like not a bug, since a minimal debootstrap (debootstrap --variant=minbase bookworm target-dir) of Debian 12 does not include the "cron" package either. It's just a change. Nothing in the base system needs cron any more. I'd regard it as more of a bug if cron got installed without anything that depended upon it.
