That’s Ubuntu you’re talking about. I’m still totally annoyed for
my PPA builds that bionic and focal don’t have debhelper 13 available.

Debian backports, at least for the last 3+ years, have had reasonably
up-to-date debhelper, as downgrading the version just for backporting
is really undesired as backports change and hindering things in sid.
13~bpo10+1 has a changelog date of 27 Apr 2020…
