Sorry, but I really disagree very much. We shouldn't have two vastly different ways to do it. Either, XS-Python-Version is the right thing. Than it should be in policy. Or there is another good mechanismn. Then it shouldn't be in policy. But - it should be uniform across source packages. The new dak headers were explicitly mentioned in Mexico, and there was more than one reason to add them. If we want to drop them again, we really should discuss them here, and speak about the reasons we had in Mexico to accept them. And, I don't think that "they're no more required" right now - just dh_python could live without them. And I really want further discussions before jumping to conclusions.
