I can't address Bookworm since I've studiously avoided moving my Debian 
box from Bullseye. I am running Ubuntu on a BeeLink SER 4 and am happy 
with it but that model is a AMD Ryzen 7 and not comparable to a Pi. 

I probably will pick up a Pi 5 at some point primarily to work with the 
Pico W. I'm currently using MicroPython on the Pico and would install the 
C/C++ tool chain on the Pi.
