I feel "should" is a too strong word.  Independently(!) from how 
upstream choose to compress their code, we have some options in Debian 
for doing so.  Recently those options was expanded to include uglifyjs, 
and it seems to me that currently that one offers the most reliable and 
effective compression.

So I encourage the use of uglifyjs generally for JavaScript in Debian - 
but not because upstream does so.
