Yup, that very line. It's wrong either way:

a) In the absence of libnss-myhostname own hostname does not correspond
to ::1 (ipv6 loopback). Can lead to some interesting side effects.
b) In the presence of libnss-myhostname that line does not come into
play.
c) FQDN, anyone?

I cannot read :) It does clearly say that 'Debootstrap will have created
a very basic /etc/apt/sources.list that will allow installing additional
packages'.

Not a Debian per se, but Raspbian lives happily without it.

I'll consider your suggestion.
