I even noticed some maintainers adding subslots dependencies on

given that there would be no impact until the library defines a

By the way, this could also be discussed: I did not check, but as far
as I understand it subslot is equal to slot if not defined. When said
library defines a subslot, the subslot will change and thus triggers a
(likely useless) rebuild of your package setting a := dep.
Alexis.
Yeah. This behaviour can be avoided by introducing the explicit subslot
only when the subslot would otherwise need bumping.
