There was already a bug in base-files for this: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=931197 and it will be considered for bullseye, but the fact that os-release does not change in Debian is clearly documented in the base-files changelog: base-files (10.2) unstable; urgency=medium [...] Add also VERSION_ID and VERSION. (never expected to change) So it may not be argued that this is a surprise from base-files side. Reassigning again. Thanks.
