The traditional position is that debug libraries should not be stripped:

    https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/-/blob/master/checks/binaries.pm#L468-471

but maybe 'dwz' consolidates the debug information in another ELF
section. It's possible that Lintian's check is outdated. I am looking
into it.

Kind regards
