it's not in any way production and that's the ISO media I had on hand, and it's been the version that worked with k3s/rke2 in the past as well, especially running single node rancher manager via docker.... I'm doing single node but directly on rke2 with containerd... otherwise I whole heartedly agree as I have been in shops where they haven't upgraded according to the release schedule and they were not only dangerously behind on critical security fixes but were unable to jump to the latest and it had to be a painful iterative process.
