I think this is a clear argument for going with dpatch. It is also much
easier for someone else (say you go on vacation and an NMU is necessary,
or a user wants to help by including a patch with their bug report) to
read the intent of your changes if they are a unified diff, rather than
a sed script. The latter format is not generally solicited by
free-software projects for general bug fixes. :-)
