Coincidence is plausible:
* Not everyone does PXE installations. Maybe the netinst ISOs don't pull
udebs from the repos?
* Not everyone uses https. I think I've only been doing it for the last
two years.
* Often, bugs aren't reported.
* The busybox-udeb version in the repos must be newer than in the initrd.
This might more often happen in testing than in stable because updated
packages are more likely to migrate into testing; the netboot/PXE
images aren't regenerated very often, so there will be mismatch until
they are.
* Not everyone installs testing; I usually don't.
