> Would it be ok to add them to override with this reasoning?

Hi,
yes you can override them, but make it detailed and trackable please.
For example finding the exact reason in that PR you posted for a given issue is 
hard.

Not:
"also broken in llvm-20 let us not care either"
lintian-override ...
lintian-override ...
lintian-override ...


More like:
# LLVM-20 has the same issues, we'd aim to resolve them over time. The 
overrides get
# individual explanations where we know the details
# This one is broken as it is an intentionally bad artifact for tests
lintian-override ...
# These windows binaries are not used in the final package due to ...
lintian-override ...
# These can't be unpacked due to ...
lintian-override ...

If any of them have upstream or Debian or Ubuntu bugs to further track them 
down, please refer to those.
And if they don't then create them please.
That way it will not stay ignored forever and maintainers/reviewers will have 
an easy way to check if this changed (by checking the bug state)

Thereby actually like:
# LLVM-20 has the same issues, we'd aim to resolve them over time. The 
overrides get
# individual explanations where we know the details
# This one is broken as it is an intentionally bad artifact for tests (LP: 
#1234)
lintian-override ...
# These windows binaries are not used in the final package due to ... (upstream 
foo/issue/1234)
lintian-override ...
# These can't be unpacked due to ... (Debian bug #1234)
lintian-override ...
