Yeah, they are meant to be stable after all :-)
We'd hope (but not always succeed) that all backports are fine on the first try.

We usually try to only have -rc1 which becomes the release if passing
verification without regressions to the older version.

Any patches arriving late are always welcome and queued for either the
next LTS release or at the next -rc if verification results trigger
the need for that.

And in addition the fact that this was meant to be the last normal
19.11.x LTS makes this a special case.
