(Get the code!)
That happens also with the current version of tzdata.
Starting with:
$ dpkg -l tzdata|grep tzdata
ii tzdata 2022a-0ubuntu1 all
$ date
Mon Mar 4 12:22:38 UTC 2024
# the current timezone (UTC) was configured via dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
$ sudo apt reinstall tzdata=

Local time is now: Mon Mar 4 12:22:55 UTC 2024.
Universal Time is now: Mon Mar 4 12:22:55 UTC 2024.
Run 'dpkg-reconfigure tzdata' if you wish to change it.
Timezone is kept, as expected.
Now I set it via timedatectl:
ubuntu@j-tz:~$ sudo timedatectl set-timezone EST
ubuntu@j-tz:~$ date
Mon Mar 4 07:23:42 EST 2024
Reinstall same tzdata:
$ sudo apt reinstall tzdata=

Current default time zone: 'America/Adak'
Local time is now: Mon Mar 4 02:23:57 HST 2024.
Universal Time is now: Mon Mar 4 12:23:57 UTC 2024.
Run 'dpkg-reconfigure tzdata' if you wish to change it.
And we get America/Adak:
$ date
Mon Mar 4 02:24:08 HST 2024
So I don't think it's a regression, and am updating the tags accordingly.
