Please see https://github.com/symfony/symfony/issues/40971 for more information about the context of this change.

As it was discussed in https://github.com/symfony/symfony/issues/18384 - regenerating the remember me token/cookie is done to avoid old cookies being stolen and reused, this is a valid concern (although cookie theft is much harder these days with httpOnly and secure flags) and a good security practice, but if the token was refreshed very recently it seems a bit overkill to refresh it again, it leads to more DB writes, and for us who are trying to support concurrent re-authenticating requests it is causing further problems if every request triggers a new token update.

I'd be happy to also update this in the old PersistentTokenBasedRememberMeServices if needed, but I find that it is perhaps better to just do this in the new auth system as it was until 5.3 considered experimental.
