As you know, that is a fundamental policy disagreement that is just never going to change. Whereas providing stub info pages is a trivial technical matter that would probably take about 5 minutes. Just make a package that conflicts with the real info pages. I don't know, I'm not a Debian packager. I'm sure it's not impossible. But obviously this is a very old topic and talking about it here does nothing.
