Right, if there's no technical reason not to backport it, you
absolutely should. You should ALSO make sure to file a Change Proposal
to make sure that people know it's coming to Fedora 41, if only for
the marketing benefit.

For example, I submit a Change every year for new Node.js major
versions (the latest of which becomes the default in the next
release), but I also always make the parallel-installable version
available on the prior releases. They just don't own the default
locations (/usr/bin/node et. al.).
