Your comment sounds very disingenuous, as Debian was first released in 1993 (about 26 years ago) and has been pushing for reproducible builds since 2000.

Your own comment is extremely disingenuous. Your own link states that there was very little enthusiasm for reproducible builds when mentioned in 2000 and 2007, and the first serious effort towards reproducible builds started in 2013.
