Now that it's public, we can say that here's the real reason for this:

CVE-2022-28735 grub2: shim_lock verifier allows non-kernel files to be
loaded
6.7/CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

The GRUB2's shim_lock verifier allows non-kernel files to be loaded on 
shim-powered
secure boot systems. Allowing such files to be loaded may lead to
unverified
code and modules to be loaded in GRUB2 breaking the secure boot
trust-chain.

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2022-06/msg00035.html

That's why we wanted to keep it ouf of testing to not expose our testing
users to that.

Planning to have updates ready in the next couple days.

grub2 showed up in my out-of-sync tracking script output. Do you think 
it's about time you could let grub2 into testing? I'm not trying to 
hurry you, take your time, but I was just wondering if you forgot about 
this bug.

GRUB 2.06 is a pretty big change over 2.04.  I'd like to hold this in
unstable for a while longer to let things shake out before we allow it
to move to testing.
