I'm not a Lintian maintainer, but I think I can safely say that we
definitely do not have project consensus for doing that.  It would be
considered a bug by a lot of people.

(I know that you treat Lintian warnings as less urgent than most other
people do, so I can understand why you would take bumping the severity
of the tag to be less related to the project consensus on the value of
doc-base.)
