::1 is also in /etc/hosts in 20.04, but it's mapped to ip6-localhost,
not to localhost.
And that had been different in the past.
Haven't installed 22.04 beta so I don't know what will be the case for
22.04 but I also guess it's too late to still land such a change. Though
it'd be a pity if that's gonna be the default for another 2 years.
Cheers,

Hello everyone,
it seems like some releases ago the mapping of localhost to ::1 was
removed. Why was this done? Many other distros don't do this (Debian,
Arch, Gentoo, OpenWrt), many other operating systems neither (macOS,
Windows). Not having localhost to resolve to ::1 is getting problematic.
Will 22.04 by default again introduce mapping of ::1 to localhost? If
not, I want to suggest to change this in the future. It seems like this
has been the case before.
Cheers,
Trey
