As a clarification TDFs 4.2.7 release _does_ update references, while Ubuntus 4.2.7-0ubuntu1 by default does not (see comment #17 on how to change that). So:
- TDFs 4.2.7 release shows  fdo#81633, but not fdo#81309
- Ubuntus 4.2.7-0ubuntu1 by default shows fdo#81309, but not fdo#81633
Both bugs are mutually exclusive.

For completeness it shall be noted that the original poster on reddit
complains about references not being updated after sort in Ubuntu
4.2.7-0ubuntu1 (so he agrees with the reporter of fdo#81309: "Sorting
should automatically adjust references."), to which the first commenter
on reddit links to fdo#85614 against TDFs builds, which says: "Sorting
should automatically adjust references is an ill conceived
enhancement.". Apparently these two reddit users are not aware that they
have exactly opposing opinions on the expected behaviour.

In fact, switching back Ubuntu default behaviour to the one of TDFs
upstream 4.2.7 release by default, while making the reporters of
fdo#81309 happy, would just exchange that for those who want fdo#81633
to be resolved.

Repeating again: Comment #17 has a quick way to toggle the default
behaviour.
