Feel free to ignore (you need to use lintian from unstable which knows
the latest standard-version). Ignoring this is perfectly fine.

That's OK.

Your analysis is correct. However, it is the lintian of your local
installation that is finally called and thus you get the false warning.
As I said - it is fine to ignore this.

I think so. It would be even OK to not override the warning to remember
that there might be some reason to rethink the packaging. I'd suggest
to leave the override as is for now.
