Changing something is just some effort. How do you want to distinguish
the "let's not do that" opinion from the "no spare time to trigger a
change" "opinion"?
Finally we have those regular archive wide rebuilds that trigger lots of
FTBFS bugs. I could imagine to simply upload those that pass the
rebuild tests. Otherwise the package needs manual intervention by the
maintainer which also will end up in an upload or a testing removal.
Kind regards
Andreas.
