Agreed. I also find Mathias response a bit too passive-aggressive.
Mathias, you might not have intended it that way but it came out that way.

The debian/upstream/signing-key.asc file can be used by "uscan" to
validade the GPG signature on upstream tarballs, see its manual page for
details. I would suggest to keep it.

I have not looked at your package but I hope that Mathias is willing to
do it. If not, let me know and I will consider sponsoring your package.
