Pop!_OS is built different than other distros, I only had to apply 1 tweak and was minor AF. Honestly, if they were up to date with Ubuntu, I'd still be using that banger distro. First they must build COSMIC, their Rust based DE.
I'm almost nervous about Cosmic because I like it now because it just works. I'm not a super pro linux user, how big of a deal is not being up to date with Ubuntu, and how far out of date is it?
Its only one LTS Version behind, but its still very usable. I have confidence that COSMIC is going to be just as easy to use as Pop!_OS is now. This gives them an opportunity to make even more changes that will improve the end user experience. The System76 team knows what they are doing and won't release a busted product.
