Well, if you can't convince the maintainer, you're welcome to escalate
it to FESCo I suppose. I don't think there's a guideline that requires
them to exist, but they are definitely handy sometimes. 

Perhaps a compromise could be to generate them for rawhide builds, but
not stable releases and if someone needs to debug things ask them to use
the rawhide one/debuginfo?
