Isnt the entire point to be able to use old hardware for servers?
If you wanted something that works with new hardware, wouldn't you use Fedora or similar?
I can't imagine the pool of people that pick an outdated distro and then pick the beta version of it.
The 24.04 release is the next release to get long-term support (5 years; commercial plans of 10 years). If you're going to stick this on a computer to run a long time, you care what it looks like (LTS releases come out every 2 years), so you might be running a beta to give feedback.
But a more interesting point here, is that this issue was caught by someone running debian unstable. So I'm glad someone is using them, even if they don't have your approval.
And due to third-party programs, Ubuntu is the most well-supported Linux distribution.
Additionally, I am most familiar with it and also use it on the server side; for this reason, I choose Ubuntu.
