Hi,

TL;DR: Please figure out whether python3-scipy can be moved to
Build-Depends-Indep.

I attempted doing so. numpy fails building its documentation without
python3-scipy.

I also attempted this. numpy appears to build successfully when
python3-numpy is moved to Build-Depends-Indep. It might silently drop
features though. Comparing it is difficult, because numpy isn't
reproducible. Someone with more clue about the package should have a
look here.
