If you never used 2022.9 in your work before, because it never existed,

I suggest you ought to consider updating to a new plug in that has more support, or for now stick with the version of PT that allows you to do your work.

Obviously running a system with the oldest piece of ______ inside the newest shiniest _______ does NOT matter compared to getting "lots of work" done, right?

Also,
You can rename in your Application folder "Pro Tools" to something like "Pro Tools.9" and then you can install the older version and work with it until the time AIR provides an update or you find a replacement. You can run both at the same time. There MIGHT be some overlap in referenced folders etc/libraries etc, but for basic testing should be good to go. Do your main work in the stable-for-you version.
