The latter is severity “important”. “Multi-Arch: Same” packages for
different architecture will be uninstallable if they do not contain
identical data files. That's a serious problem. Reproducibility issues
do not affect users in the same way.

It could make sense to emit either “gzip-file-is-not-multi-arch-same-safe” or
“package-contains-timestamped-gzip” instead of emitting both as they
should be fixed by the same changes.
