For submitting a critical approval request like this one, I would expect the approval request to explain why it can not wait until the next update (i.e. be handled in 8u-dev). In this case, I see that the currency update being made is already live (effective 2025-05-12), so I agree it fits the timeliness criteria for critical inclusion in the 2025-07 update. But please bear this in mind for future critical approvals.  Thanks.
