As I said in the other message ( https://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2024/04/msg00024.html), the only ways to address this would be to have -image depend on -headers (I think this is a bad idea, as do you), or to have a higher-order "linux-complete" package which depends on both (and could be Suggests: by both). Users who need to keep -image and -headers in sync could install this. Thank you for taking the time to explain the problem; the earlier parts of this thread were very confusing to me.
