No, they said it would be released. You can release a FOSS project without an installer or hardware support. But the change doc here mentions the ROG Ally directly soooooo…
Your example isn’t great btw, all three of those distros are “broad” OSes that run almost everywhere, each being built on top of the other like an idiotic house of FOSS cards. If PopOS runs on it, Debian runs on it. If Debian runs on it, PopOS might not run on it without changing DEs.

The point was simply that Debian is not responsible for Ubuntu or PopOS, but they can still interact cooperatively. Downstream benefits from the work Upstream does and downstream can contribute upstream so everyone benefits.
