In most cases, you're right.
But for instance, for binutils, the "--build=binary" option builds the
packages for all architectures: cf. the battached .buildinfo.
If you want to build for several architectures then you'd do something

Thanks for the info: the --arch option is not listed in the official
sid dpkg-buildpackage
documentation
