Policy sections 3.4 & 5.6.13 document the description requirements:
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-binary.html#s-descriptions
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Description
The Developers Reference further documents some best practices:
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/best-pkging-practices.html#bpp-debian-control
Please go ahead with your description changes.
