4/ And in case anyone wonders:
Yes, that's will mean that 6.6.y will be supported *three* years in total, and not *two*, which since about nearly a year is the new official expected target[1].
I'm pretty sure the stable team did this to not end support for 6.6 before 6.1 becomes EOL.
Hence next years longterm kernel will likely be the first since a while that will only get two years of support.
