You appear to be talking about binary packages. This bug is about source
packages. When you unpack a source package, you are creating a directory
hiearchy rooted at the point where you start unpacking. There is not
possibly any reasonable way to split your source package into multiple
file systems. This is very different from binary packages where the
underlying hiearchy is shared with other packages and directories
frequently already exist.

Your are totally right. And it is also on the subject line.

So: I have not reasonable explanation.
