In the previous long thread on debian-devel on this subject, someone posted a 
step-by-step recipe to reproduce a phenomenon where a file that has been moved 
(in its package) from an installation path of /bin (for example) to /usr/bin, 
possibly in conjunction with a change to which package owns it, while /bin is a 
symlink to /usr/bin, will disappear from the file system when the updated set 
of packages is installed.  (I regret I do not have time today to dig up the 
exact email in question.)

Are you seriously claiming that that phenomenon is not a severity:critical bug?
