Because the fix you have in mind involves bothering a lot of people,
or worse, a few people with a lot of work, while the intermediate
status proposed by Bill fixes all the undesired effects you
have listed before.
BTW: I've just built the 311 packages which BD on dh-buildinfo
with a modified dh-buildinfo package which does nothing but
emit a warning and I only found one package which failed to build
that did not failed before, aflplusplus, and that one is already
fixed in salsa, so making dh_buildinfo a no-op in trixie seems
to be safe.
Thanks.
