That's fine, but meanwhile the only solution is not to install it.
In general, I don't think BRLTTY should be installed unless the user
explicitly installs the package or uses braille during the Debian
installation.
The issue isn't just the current problem under discussion, but also the
probing of serial ports (although I suppose that can be turned off if it
happens by default).
