At this point in time I would say yes.

Hi, the issue is much deeper - the default(no extra config) of 
mmdepstrap ( mmdebstrap sid test-sid.tar.zst) is still pre deb822 
format. It supports the new format.


debootstrap (sudo debootstrap sid test-sid http://deb.debian.org/debian )
  also uses by default the pre-822 format 
(https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/debootstrap/-/blob/master/functions?ref_type=heads#L1196).
