Yes. I think I agree with Miquel, the LSB is a spec meant for
LSB packages. Debian packages are not meant to be LSB packages, and
thus the LSB spec does not apply.

I see nothing relevant in that message. You appear to be
reading the LSB spec to see if it has any exceptions (and, since it
applies only to third party LSB packages, it is not surprising you
did not see any exeptions for vendor packages).
Footnote 2 that you mentioned seems to say that the LSB spec
does not apply to vendor packages or mechanisms.
