You mean the primary key?  No, it does not because that is not intended
by OpenPGP.  Doing so would not allow to move a subkey to another master
key.

Only taking the algorithm id is good iff there is one algorithm id per
ECC+ML-KEM combination.  This is not the case here and thus we need to
adjust for it.  Frankly, keeping the algo id is superfluous as it it
also part of the fingerprint but it does not harm either.

The other choice, would be to include the entire public key as in an
early draft, but the fingerprint is easier to describe.
