Currently, yes. But since dpkg-buildpackage calls debian/rules build, we're not avoiding anything at all. It just means that dh will also have to be updated to benefit from the separation at some point... And given everything ought to be makefile-based, calling the build a second time should be a no-op right now. So I don't see what's so wrong. Clearly it has no benefit right now, but it's also not wrong in the general case.
