Because it blocks other packages from migrating to testing, e.g.:

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/apt

If it's not appropriate, please do update it accordingly, but IIRC it's
what gets used in these cases.

Good find - regardless of whether it's intended that the tarball is so
large, perhaps it is an indication that the sbuild testsuite is a bit
fragile w.r.t. the running environment? Would it be possible to adjust
it to be more resilient? Is there a different disk-based scratch area
available for test artifacts?
