This is the kind of thing that prevents me from running Proxmox.
Debian 11, aka Bullseye, isn't the stable release of Debian. It's the testing distro for Debian. Later this year it's expected to become the new stable - when all serious bugs are ironed out.
Also Proxmox isn't running the Debian kernel. It's the Ubuntu kernel with patches. Why this Frankenstein mix of components? It doesn't inspire confidence.

Seems reasonable to me. And Debian is super conservative in most cases. I don't see cause for concern in this case. And remember "based on" is kind of "for your information". Lots of things are "based on" unreleased products before. Most cars are "based on" models that never got to production. It's the quality of the final release, not the process of getting to the release, that ultimately matters.
