It’s very much not ambiguous, as the entire entry is a list of
fixes, that’d be reducing the signal:noise ratio (besides this
part of the changelog is copy-pasted from the upstream release
announcement).

I find that lintian is overly opinionated here. I could agree,
were this just a single line (given the tag’s stated purpose),
but not for multi-line or lists.
