Yet the only numbers he can find (which you mentioned in your bug
report) prove exactly the opposite of what he argues. He has no basis
for argument :).

I suggest you just file the same bug against Ubuntu. Ubuntu developers
are far more likely to care about Epiphany-the-browser (they came
extremely close to making it their default), and I find stuff gets done
in Ubuntu way faster than in Debian :).
