Using fwupd from snap doesn't sound like a solution, more of a manual workaround.

People out there won't notice fwupd silently fails to update their firmware (currently it says "Not compatible with org.freedesktop.fwupd version 1.7.9, requires >= 1.9.1"). Which is likely to end up with an unpatched vulnerability in some firmware during 22.04 lifetime.

Also fwupd from snap is not maintained by Canonical, so it doesn't follow all the policies (including security) Canonical software follows.
