Yup, that's what I wrote https://bugs.debian.org/1032235#97

On the one hand it was unfortunate to find such a severe RC bug
(unbootable system with the default config) so late in the freeze, on
the other hand it would have been even worse if src:argon2 would have
been uploaded to bookworm-security or -pu after the stable release :-)

Don't know if that's the best or most robust solution but that's what
I'd do as workaround at least.

Yup that'd make sense to me (and I see you did that already), thanks!
