The Lintian maintainers are happy to participate in a discussion, but
they do not implement their personal policy stances in defiance of the
project's authoritative documentation. As noted, the use of
Standard-Version is, in my view, a packaging error everywhere—and not
just in udebs. To that extent we are allies; otherwise Lintian is not
the right place for you (or I) to address concerns about that
pestering and unnecessary field. Thanks for copying -policy!

Kind regards,
Felix Lechner
