I was not trying to justify reducing engineering effort but mainly pointing out that 'the user experience is harmed if a user installing Focal subsequent to the bugfix landing in Focal, and therefore unaware of any bug, then upgrades to Hirsute and is regressed' isn't a situation in the hand of the SRU team alone and is a reality for users upgrading to a new serie. But focusing again on the point, we have limited manpower and we are going to have cases where the maintainer isn't going to be wanting to put the work to SRU to multiple series. Which means the question is 'Do we believe it's better for the project and our users to have a bug fixed in the LTS only or not fixed for anyone'? I'm personally strongly in favor of not having a policy that could get in the way of bringing higher quality and polish to LTS users (keeping in mind that's where most of our users are and what our partners rely on usually).
