It’s their product. It doesn’t meet their standards, so they’re pulling the release to make changes.

I highly doubt anybody’s workflow relies upon this specific version of Linux to operate. Might suck if you are missing out by not using the latest and greatest Linux distribution, but if you need this version and don’t have a service contract in place (do they even offer any?), it’s not on them to meet your expectations.

do they even offer any?

On non-LTS releases? Almost certainly not.

You're 100% on the money, if a broken non-LTS release - which you can still upgrade to from an earlier release with do-release-upgrade, or install from the server ISO then apt install the UI - something has already gone horribly wrong, and a couple of days wait for a re-released ISO is by far the least of your problems.
