It's correct that there is no native support in dpkg(-maintscript-helper) to transfer ownership of conffiles properly from one package to another. It is doable though with some contortions, see e.g. https://salsa.debian.org/systemd-team/systemd/-/commit/d6483013d5779d4d465a1e174e44a754b941d0e6

Guess the reason might be that the version used with dpkg-maintscript- helper rm_conffile could be wrong. (AFAIU, the version that needs to be specified for that is NOT the version where the conffile was dropped, but rather "the latest version of the package whose upgrade should trigger the operat
