FWIW, I agree. Personnally, I think that if Debian has a problem with the above, it's their problem to deal with, not Python's.
The OSI may also have a problem with the license if they were to be made aware of it.
See section 8 of the Open Source Definition:
"""8. License Must Not Be Specific to a Product
The rights attached to the program must not depend on the program's being part of a particular software distribution. If the program is extracted from that distribution and used or distributed within the terms of the program's license, all parties to whom the program is redistributed should have the same rights as those that are granted in conjunction with the original software distribution.
"""
I'm not entirely sure if this affects the PSF's use of OSI's trademark.
IANAL. TINLA.
