This isn't all that accurate. The autobuilder considers some things build-essential, like debhelper. So just because the autobuilders do not have a build-dep for it, doesn't mean it doesn't need any. Just FYI, since I'm not really interested in this thread...if I and others keep filing bugs, sooner or later everything will sucomb and add Build-Deps anyway. Forcing it with policy only means that my bug reports will read a bit different (the severity of failing to build on a supported arch, is just as bad as failing to meet policy, since policy states that packages must build).
