The rationale for SRU to impish is clear-cut, as you explain that the package currently in impish is unusable due to symbol resolution errors and cannot work for any users.

But for focal you say that the iwlwifi module *may* fail to load firmware; this implies that the package currently in focal can work for some users, which means that there is the possibility of this new version regressing the package for those users. The SRU policy says:

   For Long Term Support releases we regularly want to enable new hardware. Such changes are appropriate provided that we can ensure not to affect upgrades on existing hardware.

This bug report lacks information about how you have ensured this will not regress existing hardware and does not have a standing SRU exception, therefore as written does not fit our SRU policy.
