But this then _loses_ the guaranteed success of the build on the regular
architectures.  Build-depends aren't just for autobuilders; they're for
humans also, and the package should build with any of the allowable
build-depends combinations.

For your architecture the change would convert a guaranteed failure into
a possible failure, but for the release architectures it would convert a
guaranteed success into a possible failure.  As a whole I'm not
comfortable with this.
