I think we can be far more charitible to Tails here… The one you are
alluding to "cheats" by having an already-constructed Debian
filesystem that is stored in a Git repository, rather than something
built from the ground-up from debootstrap or similar.
Thus, they are not running any postinst scripts during the image
build and thus the problem is vastly reduced.
I am not aware of another Debian-related image that is reproducible
which actually starts from scratch.

I was not aware of that. Woo!
