I spent some time digging into the original rationale for why the change
was implemented, and it appears the root cause was that Fedora stopped
supporting SHA1 signed certificates:

Given there are no such changes planned for Noble, this backport would
strictly be a nice-to-have. Even though I agree using SHA256 over SHA1
is preferred, it's unfortunately not a justification for an SRU.
