packages.debian.org is indeed very basic and user-oriented. Most things
not visible there (and most things interesting to contributors) are at
http://tracker.debian.org/pkg/rsnapshot
There you can see both the "[2021-04-11] rsnapshot REMOVED from testing
(Debian testing watch)" news item where you can see the reason for removal,
and the "testing migrations" block with excuses stating the reason for not
migrating back (note that sometimes these are different reasons).
