I just saw the correct and direct download links can be obtained reading this json https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/blob/master/distributions/DistributionInfo.json
Yes! We should examine replacing that list with the DistributionInfo.json page
Documentation Issue
The download links for x64 version of Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and the link for 22.04 LTS are wrong: they will point to an appx bundle of auto-upgradeable version (20.04 it will upgrade through store to last version, so far 22.04 and I guess the 22.04 to a next one when available) while it is supposed to be just the non-auto-upgrade versions.
Correct download link for x64 version is this instead (guessed from ARM64 download) https://wsldownload.azureedge.net/Ubuntu_2004.2020.424.0_x64.appx
Cannot get the correct download links for x64 and ARM64 of 22.04 LTS.

Suggested Improvements
Provides non-auto ugprade installation links for for 20.04 LTS and 22.04 LTS for both x64 and ARM64, in non-auto-ugpradable versions (for auto-upgrade version there is already the generic "ubuntu" version in both direct download and MS store).
