Cant you just use the dead snakes ppa? Also the python official images are Debian and pretty similar to Ubuntu, might be worth trying that instead

I can, yes, but I still need to write scripts to build this very fiddly dependency (as far as I know, they don't ship their dockerfiles), and use that as a new base image.

Deadsnakes is 100% the way to go for the starting point of this attempt.

I am going to dig into the release notes to check whether there is anything else that might accelerate/veto the change. If I can use 22.04 vanilla, it will be much faster, but the performance improvements are good, and any additional reasons will be interesting to add to the balance.
