At the time you wrote this, i think the sq package description was
pretty similar to what it is today:

It looks like the description we have today was written when sq was
first packaged, but wasn't actually incorporated into the package
until later because of https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=993633

Version 0.25.0-1 simply had

 Description: Command-line frontends for Sequoia
  This package contains the following binaries built from the Rust crate
  "sequoia-sq":
   - sq

As far as the current description goes, I think it's generally not
too bad but I think there are some minor improvements that could be
made.

* It would be nice if we could get rid of the last couple of lines
  (which are generated by debcargo) somehow since they are largely
  redundant. Not sure if this is possible with current debcargo.
* I feel it lacks a bit in "big picture", I *think* sqv is the main
  command line tool for the sequoia project. If that is the case
  it would be nice to say so expliciltly and upfront. Also since
  people will be comparing it with gpg it might be an idea to point
  out explicitly whether things like web of trust support are
  included.
* I'm not sure a list of subcommands belongs in a package
  description or if the description would be better sticking
  to describing functionality.
