that's not quite what native packages are for. Native packages should be
used only, when the package is specific to Debian.
Moreover, keep in mind even if upstream and Debian maintainer is the
same person, this does not necessarily need to be forever the case.
Consider adoptions, NMUs, stable uploads and many other cases where a
Debian package diverges from the "official" upstream source.
