This makes it sound like the problem was known before the point release was unleashed.

Where was the warning about not stepping up to the point release if you used Nvidia drivers posted? I'd like to subscribe to that.

This issue could not be resolved in time for the release of Debian 12.5.
It is therefore unfortunate that a rush strategy was chosen.
