2. file a bug against ftp.debian.org asking for the removal of

That isn't really a workable option. It would just push the problem down the
line to other packages. Taken to it's conclusion, solving this through the
removal request route would mean removing firefox.
Where are you seeing firefox depending on it in any way?
It doesn't, the issue is that removal requests work on all the binaries from a
source package at once.
removing rust-packed-simd would leave rust-rand in a broken state
removing rust-rand would leave rust-tempfile in a broken state
removing rust-tempfile would leave rust-cbindgen in a broken state
removing rust-cbindgen would leave firefox-esr in a broken state
Also note that librust-packed-simd+sleef-sys-dev cannot be salvaged in
any case.
Agreed.
