I don't think this is true, actually.
As I read it, the policy says that, even if you spec R-R-R: no,
the build /may/ be run as non-root, but must always work,
and if you're root has no bearing on this, so it must work here.

(but ftr I don't disagree with the downgrade ‒ this is implied twice,
 and this argument is hard to maintain for B-D: dpkg-build-api (= 1)
 packages (which this is not! but); I just left the reportbug defaults)

Best,
