Morning,
I can see your point, but wasn't it already like this before?
Calling clean was already triggering the control generation:
override_dh_auto_clean: debian/control

Strictly-speaking, B-Ds need to be present for "clean" to work.
We can try to move the control generation to a different point in the
build process, but "clean" has worked well for me in the past. (My
development systems are all running testing, so the version skew is
not a problem there.)
