Thanks for identifying that solution. Please could you make that change
in the next pipewire upload? (Note that this is currently marked as RC.)
I don't think this is likely to be addressable from the meta-gnome3 side,
so I'm reassigning this.

As far as I can see, that wouldn't regress co-installability, because
pipewire-audio and pulseaudio-module-bluetooth are already not
co-installable (pipewire-audio Conflicts pulseaudio,
pulseaudio-module-bluetooth Depends pulseaudio)

Adding technically-unnecessary Conflicts/Replaces or Breaks/Replaces is
sometimes necessary to hint apt's heuristics for "should I be willing to
remove package A to get package B upgraded?" into doing what we consider
to be the right thing.
