The same will hold true even for buster+1 given that stretch will still be supported at that time. If anything your argument would mean that we should have different default for the --merged-usr flag for different release. This might indeed be important if we want to make sure that recent debootstrap do not introduce unexpected problems when building chroot for very old releases.
