I'll ask again please that you implement something that notifies you
when a relevant Launchpad team changes, so that you can then manually
fix the GitHub side. This should take all of half an hour for someone
familiar with the Launchpad API, so I don't think it's a big ask. This
would avoid imposing a burden and friction on new team members who can't
be expected to know what to do nor who to contact.

I don't see how you can be convinced given that you said just above that
you (collectively) cannot prioritise fixing this.
