python3.5 is no longer considered to be a supported Python version
(reference: /usr/share/doc/python3/changelog.Debian.gz) so it is no
longer guaranteed to have any particular useful behaviour.
This is a property of how Python libraries in Debian are packaged,
not something that is specific to how python3-dbus is packaged, so it
will not be addressed by changes to python3-dbus (unless the Python
packaging policy changes). If you have a plan for how to do it better,
please suggest it to the maintainers of the Python policy, not to the
maintainers of individual extensions.

If we added Breaks to the source code of every package that contains
CPython "extensions", we'd have to do source uploads of all 529 such
packages[1] during every Python-version transition, not just binary-only
rebuilds on the buildds. That just doesn't scale.
If you have an idea for how suitable Breaks could be added automatically
by dh-python3, please talk to its maintainers.
