While APFS has advantages for SSD-based storage, there really aren’t any for hard disk drives, the most likely kind of drive used for large-capacity backup drives. Because of the structural differences, you can’t just copy from HFS+ to APFS, either. However, if you want to shift a drive from HFS+ to APFS, you have to reformat the drive, and that erases all the Time Machine backups. You can set up a drive from scratch with HFS+ to create new Time Machine volumes as well. Your old HFS+ based Time Machine volumes remain valid and readable in Big Sur.
