Au contraire, this is a good example of how well the PGP/GPG ecosystem deals with the realities of a long term cryptography standard. People with SHA1 hashes in their signatures have a reasonable way to transition away from those signatures while maintaining the reputation of those identities. There really isn't anything out there as good.
I should also point out that that the attack this is addressing (Shambles) has close to no practical implications. So this is a good example of how the PGP/GPG ecosystem takes security breakage very seriously.
