This is probably a local configuration issue, you probably manually
installed the 38 version or something, go and have a look at apt-mark
showmanual, and like aptitude why or sth.
As you've shown, the configuration is the same, and nothing in the code
using it changed.
** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)

Running sudo apt autoremove results in:

It worked properly in previous versions of apt, but since upgrade to
apt version 2.1.10ubuntu0.2 I seem to be unable to autoremove old
kernels. I expect the kernel version 5.8.0-38.43 to be removed with
the autoremove command.
