If some tests are automatically disabled when the network isn't
available one could argue that the build behavior is changed though.
Maybe the rule should focus on the part of the build generating the
content of the binary packages. Something like this:

"For packages in the main archive, no build step may attempt network
access in a way that:
- leaks sensitive data
- changes the build result or the operations performed to produce it"

(with the build result defined as the binary packages produced)
