Thanks for the clarification, but this thing is really scratching my mind
why are we making chages in a already debinized repo?

Because your task, at the highest abstraction level, is to move the packaging on top of the new upstream version, adapting it in the process if needed.
If a version 2 of a
package is in upstream why would someone patch the already debinized repo
instead of patching the new upstream and debianzing it ?

It's possible that your definitions of "patch", "debianize" and "make changes" are different from the usual ones, or maybe that you are misunderstanding some basic parts of the workflows involved.
