My understanding is that it requires a stable proposed update, with
a debdiff that stops building the binary package you want to
see removed.

Possibly. See "Suite update policy" on https://release.debian.org/.
You'll want to file a stable pu bug with reportbug, attaching
a debdiff, making it clear what important bugs it fixes, making sure
not to include unrelated changes, and making sure the bugs are fixed
in testing/sid already. Any not-too-crazy debdiff that satisfies these
basic requirements is usually at least considered.

Cheers,
