This line (and such lines from other packages) is used to create
a dialog like this in debian-installer:

===============================================================================

Software blends selection

Here you can choose from our blends for installation:

	Blends to install:

	astronomy (Debian Astro)
	for kids (Debian Junior)
	Debian in health care (Debian Med)

===============================================================================

So at that place everything would be ok, there is no need to repeat
"Debian Blend" or similar in every line IMO.

However, from the point of view of package description translation, you are
of course right, if one don't know the context, it's for sure not ideal...

But anyway, I would leave this decision to the Blends people (or maybe
call for a review on debian-l10-english...)
We will see, how it goes.
