Upon rechecking Debian Policy, I realized that the current behavior of
debsums violates Policy 10.7.3
<http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s10.7.3>.
debsums ships /etc/default/debsums in the package (marked as a conffile)
and then modifies it in maintainer scripts.

debsums either needs to stop shipping /etc/default/debsums in the
package (creating/maintaining it entirely in the maintainer scripts), or
stop modifying it in the maintainer scripts.

Personally, I'd recommend the latter option, but either would work.
