The newer-standards-version tends to be printed by mistake, usually because someone upgraded their packaging according to the latest debian-policy before a new Lintian got uploaded to the repository. What Lintian should instead do is source the current Standards live from Masters, and only issue the warning if the declared version is newer than that. src:routine-update already has the code to perform this.

lintian must retain the ability to operate offline, so it has to include debian-policy data. routine-update is different in that it's designed to connect to the internet and fetch a new upstream version, so it might as
well also grab the latest policy data while it's at it.

The issue here isn't bringing lintian up-to-date (that's easy), it's maintenance. I've requested access to the Salsa repo for lintian so I
can work on maintaining it since ~6 weeks ago, and still haven't been
given access nor a definitive response.
