I knew that Debian does not allow multiple distro, and it's precisely for this that I expect any usage will end up using equality test which in turn will lead to problems for distributions using multiple distro if we return multiple distros. But this is all wishful thinking at this point given that I have no use case where some analysis of the distributions returned needs to be portable across several derivatives and Debian itself. So I updated the field to return all distributions because either way it's not going to change much (and it's always possible to add DEB_FIRST_DISTRIBUTION later if we ever have to reconsider the question).
