Hi,
Thanks for filling this bug and for looking up the old ones,
I'm adding those to the list with usertags:

Look at:
/var/lib/dpkg/info/python3-tk:amd64.prerm
&/var/lib/dpkg/info/python3-tk:amd64.postinst
It seems complicated, some complicated stuff that could be abstracted-out
to some debhelper plugin and work automagically like the rest of
DebHelper goodness.
I have my own plugin, "dh-cruft" that's still really basic, but has
some #VERSION#
templating POC that has not been used yet;
I will give a try to see if it can be adapted for python3-tk usage.
I do this just for myself at first thinking on a longer term,
any other simpler way to _definitively_ fix python3-tk asap while in
the freeze is welcomed.
Greets,
