For questions like this you have to ask the mercurial project. Ubuntu is only packaging that software for easy installation and does not have influence on its features.

Maybe https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/Python3 helps.

What is the problem?
The current version of Mercurial / TortoiseHG is working well with python2, and python2 is available on Ubuntu focal.

Python2 official not support. Maybe security and bugs issues. I worried about security. Nothing more
