This was never the correct action, and since the start of the bullseye 
release cycle, binaries that were not built on the buildds are blocked 
from entering testing.[1]

The only problem for testing migration are stale old binaries on an 
architecture, if a package never built on a release architecture or
after removal of the stale binaries FTBFS on some architectures are
not a problem for testing migration.
