Since I didn't understand the Debian-official position on this topic,
here is the
relevant section from wikipedia:
"Debian strived to comply with the LSB, but with many limitations.
However, this effort ceased around July 2015 due to lack of interest
and workforce inside the project. In September 2015, the Debian
project confirmed that while support for Filesystem Hierarchy Standard
(FHS) would continue, support for LSB had been dropped. Ubuntu
followed Debian in November 2015."
