My bad, I'm sure.

Glancing at this again, I think making extracting the compat level
into a library method would be the least worst option (vs. abstracting
out all the debian/rules.pm parsing).

Just need to think of the cleanest way of returning the many tags:
they should be emitted directly in debhelper.pm instead of in this
hypothetical subroutine. (For example,
debhelper-compat-file-contains-multiple-levels,
declares-possibly-conflicting-debhelper-compat-versions,
uses-debhelper-compat-file.)
