I did not used a tight Depends (see r-cran-matrix (>= $${rmbversion}) in

Hence, if you really want to do this version dance (which I prefer we don't, but I agree aligning with upstream is good), I think we prefer the tight versioned dependency. Because than it shows up in the transition overview and it's clear it needs a rebuild (I guess binNMU now should work). A "mere" regression just blocks r-cran-matrix until somebody informs you (typically me, but only after one month), which is annoying for everyone involved.
BTW, now we have a new kind of regression[2] 56s Error: (converted from warning) package ‘TMB’ was built under R version 4.3.2 I have no idea how to fix this from my side.
Well, exactly the same trick, but instead of r-cran-matrix on one of the core r things? Or block that "converted from warning" thing from converting warnings to errors.
