Interesting. I run the 6 month cycle Ubuntu releases. I'm currently on
20.10 waiting for the update app to offer me 21.04. From my reading of the
problems users typically encounter, LTS is for folks who want security
patches only, with the understanding that they'll probably have to clean
install the next LTS release if you want it (because of the version gap
challenge I mentioned earlier.)

than OI

OK, so your experience with OI stuff not breaking between pkg upgrade
reboots is the same as mine :)

I do believe Ubuntu has supported rollbacks for ZFS root installations
since 20.04 LTS.
