Yeah, duh, because the page it links to was created during the brainstorm before the branding was redefined.

Nah, if I was a lemming I would have blindly followed the rule and used caps. Instead of using lowercase as was done in some instances on the page (and not just the one I referenced).

Answer: because they don't care.

However, one could ask for the (patched) source, create own deb, and upload this. This draws attention to the application by other developers, and quite some .deb files are simple cross compiles.

If this is ethically OK I'm willing to start some work on this once I got SB2 for Diablo working...

Well, not all of them. Some either don't have the packaging experience, don't feel that their stuff is quite up-to-snuff, or just plain don't have the time. I'm sure any of them would appreciate all the assistance they can get.
