This one is surprising. IIUC the doc you mention, this field can only have one
value (debian-rules) which is the default value. Is that correct ?
I can add this field, but I don't see the point.

ok, so we are migrating from a file (debian/compat) to a field in debian/
control. Which means debian/compat is now deprecated.
I'm worried if this is enforced on package using old compat version. what
happens then ?
All the best
