My intention in the MR that was included in the NMU[1] was to default to
merged-/usr chroots in all cases for trixie and up, but continue to
produce unmerged-/usr chroots for bookworm. When I tested the MR, that's
the result I got[2]. Have you observed something different?
There was consensus among the TC[3] that this change was appropriate for
trixie/sid at this time.
To the best of my knowledge, the official Debian buildds run on stable
(possibly oldstable in some cases) and use debootstrap from there, so any
changes here would not affect official buildds until/unless they are
backported into (old)stable point releases via -proposed-updates.
