Basically I thought that the explanation of binary-arch and binary-indep 
combined
with the principle of minimal build-dependencies yields the answer. Especially 
the
footnote in paragraph 7.6 (on package relations) seems to shed light on this 
(and
shead doubt on the effectiveness of build-depends-indep, oh well).
