Same here.
Not only "what you know", but it makes the servers I manage and the
desktops exactly the same from the command line.
No surprises, consistency, updates at the same time, versions of Python,
PHP, Perl, ...etc. are all the same, and much more.
All with debian apt goodness.

So far, one in-place upgrade from 21.10 to 22.04 went without a hitch,

As I said, I usually wait until the xx.04.1 release, which usually has all
the instabilities ironed out.
Upgrading from LTS to LTS never failed for me.
But I am on XFCE, not GNOME.
