Yes. Those two sets of packages are more or less distinct. The only intersection is of packages that have C extensions (and thus a dependency on the specific ruby versions it was build against) *and* to build against ruby3.0. Most of the FTBFS bugs are against pure-Ruby packages that fail against ruby3.0, and are not even listed in the transition tracker. A good part of the packages that *are* listed in the transition will be good after a binNMU. To fix those we need to have ruby3.0 as a supported version in unstable in the first place. Also as we are "just" adding ruby3.0 support, this has little effect on users since ruby2.7 is still the default.
