Drive by remark/clarification: * If you use dh-exec then you need to Build-Depend on it regardless of debhelper compat level. * With compat 13, debhelper provides a *subset* of the dh-exec and you /may/ be able to replace your use of dh-exec with debhelper compat 13 features. In this case, you should remove the build dependency on dh-exec. I think Bastian's remark was alluding towards my second bullet but I feared it might be misread as "just drop the build dependency".
