An Ubuntu kernel bug causes container crashes

> EOLing a kernel does not magically cause bugs to appear.

No but one thing is certain, it will not magically fix all those that are discovered daily and that affect it.
For sure the best way not to know about bugs is to use an EOL version that doesn't receive fixes.

Maybe more maybe less, who knows.

But that's why there are LTS kernels for those who want to stick as long as possible to what works best for them. Some people only deploy a kernel on sensitve systems after one year, so that most of the recent regressions are out of the way. I personally deploy new LTS kernels on my laptop so that I can spot changes or bugs early, and have time to get them fixed before these kernels need to reach servers. That's reasonable.
