Update: Google just sent me the following:
"We recognize we caught some in the ecosystem off guard by this, and have decided to reverse the change and maintain support for Ubuntu 18.04. We will publish a build that restores compatibility next week. We do plan to drop support for 18.04 in the future, but will be sure to provide additional notice ahead of any changes."
Google spox also told me no other OSes were impacted by 128.
