Thanks so much for your detailed response -- this is super helpful.

It looks like a simple workaround for the time being (assuming you don't
mind sacrificing pdiffs) is:

    echo 'Acquire::PDiffs "false";' > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99local

This has silenced all of our machines :)

Thanks for your work on Debian!
