Until this is resolved (which it hasn't been yet), I don't think it's obviously correct that we should remove the package from the Ubuntu archive. Snap is part of the default Ubuntu experience across flavors, flatpak is not. Downloading third-party .debs from upstream websites is not recommended. So although there are bugs, it is not clear that our users are better served by removal of the package.
