I hope we all agree that bluring a thread by discussing a Code of Conduct which is unfortunately ignored by people from time to time is not interesting at all and I hope you can continue discussing this on curiosa if you are not able to provide real context to the topic.

I have re-uploaded to non-free because I am sick of wasting my time with this kind of issue. But since in the rejected package I had taken great care to include uuencoded sources of the PDF and explained this in REAME.source, can you confirm this was not acceptable for Debian and that shipping sources in the Debian diff is not enough?
If you ask me things are quite clear: From a Debian point of view the
source includes *.orig.tar.gz, *.dsc and *.diff. The files are connected
via md5sum in *.dsc. So shipping the source of a PDF in the diff should
be acceptable from a Debian point of view (even if it would be nice to
have it i nthe upstream source). It makes sense to document this in
README.Source (as you did) AND debian/copyright (I don't know whether you
did).
I see no real reason for rejecting in your case.
Kind regards
Andreas.
