I’m just a user, not a maintainer or developer, but IMHO it makes sense to provide debian packages for all versions, and only those versions, in the intersection of the two sets {supported by upstream} and {supported by debian}.  Anything outside of that intersection either adds work for the debian maintainers or would be useless to debian users.
