I believe they are different.  This request seems to be about
informative text (an example), while #578597 is about the normative
part of policy (a policy "should").

Here's a rough patch for discussion's sake.  Points that might be nice
to fit in somehow:

 - warning flags come before the flags read from dpkg-buildflags,
   so they can be overridden with
   DEB_CFLAGS_APPEND="-Wno-all -Wno-extra"

 - important optimization flags such as -fno-strict-aliasing
   come after the flags read from dpkg-buildflags, so they cannot
   be overridden

 - using := instead of = saves us from running dpkg-buildflags
   multiple times if $(CFLAGS) is used more than once.

Thoughts?  Improvements?
