Hello. Are you really sure that the above change is correct?

no, I am not 100% sure this is correct.

I believe the spirit of nocheck build profile, in plain English, was
that the "outcome" of building the packages should be the same, and
for that to happen, not only the contents of the packages should be
the same, but also the list of generated packages should also be the
same.

Where does this statement come from? Do we have this written down somewhere? I get the point of it, but lomiri-content-hub source code would need adjustments for this to become possible with the effect of saving CPU time at build time.

Here: https://wiki.debian.org/BuildProfileSpec#Registered_profile_names

nocheck has N + N, so binary packages and their contents cannot change.
