For what it’s worth, I asked because someone said possible behaviour
bugs. I don’t see a single hint of that in your list. Maybe the one
with chown 0:0 may be perceived as one, but you said it was never
required, so that’s out too.

Another thing is, I’m not totally closed to talking about making
better alternatives, I brought up the idea of a debhelper-lite
myself already. But not now. You’ve got a release to do, and I’d
like the RC bugs in dash gone, for one, so that mksh can be used
as /bin/sh without a manual “sudo ln -sf mksh-static /bin/sh”.
Goswin made a proposal for it, even (no feedback from the bash
maintainer on this at all). Or, just RoQA dash… what I should be
trying to say (it’s obscenely late and I probably shouldn’t rant
here but go to sleep) is, we all have other things to do, it does
its job quite well and the people responsible for it do not have
a problem with that.

Good night,
