Yes, it's an intentional feature. I asked this a month ago and was told

In fairness, this is done because if you upgrade your kernel and
hibernate, GRUB will use the new kernel by default which would almost
certainly fail to start post-hibernate, thus losing any unsaved work.

So, with the caveat that you should not hibernate after a kernel update:

Is hibernate working for you with the latest packages? It stopped
working for me about four weeks ago...
