You can only binNMU things when their dependencies are
installable, which isn’t always the case when you have
a lot of these things.

It does (debian-ports *only* have unstable): if one package
pulls in libjpeg62-turbo, then the Provides is fulfilled,
and any further dependency on libjpeg62 for which the
version is <= 1:1.4.0-7+p is ignored.

I need to be able to binNMU things. I’m currently fighting
some circular B-D issues (e.g. curl/curl-filters/ghostscript),
running into a libjpeg issue on the way doesn’t help.

Why do you fight this? Adding the version to Provides helps
in *some* cases on debian-ports architectures and doesn’t
hurt anything. I don’t understand.
