What other way would there be to proceed?

Go ahead and file bugs. With patches. And perhaps an explanation
of why a README in the .deb is not required and, if it exists, is not
required to equal upstream's.

When a few dozen of your patches have made it to sid, condense your
experience into a well-reasoned, not too long, best practices summary
which acknowledges that maintainer discretion is still required for
many things, and offer it for inclusion in the Developer's Reference.
