One argument for having 'ubuntu' in the version usually is that it will
prevent the autosync job to override the revision (in case Debian would
also bump their epoch to 2 and have a version higher) but having the
package added to the sync blocklist would achieve the same result.
Either way seems fine to me, it's just a deb version which is something
most users will not ever notice or care about (the current thunderbird
SRU version In lunar for example is 1:115.3.1+build1-0ubuntu0.23.04.1...
;-)

Title:
  Deb version numbering is misleading

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  For Ubuntu >= Focal the transitional debs are frozen at the version
  number 1:85...

  This might make one think[1][2] that it will install a critically
  outdated Chromium while it does not, because it installs the snap.
