I've read this comment in the script before filing my question. And my
question is: Why postgresql.org does not deliver this PGDG Debian/Ubuntu
version of the script for Linux(!) as default:

Because there are more flavors of Linux then the Debian family?

The basic issue is that the project itself takes responsibility for 
delivering the source. Integration of the source with OS'es is left to 
others.

What you see here:

https://www.postgresql.org/download/

is delivered by separate packaging teams.

At this point end users directly building from source is, from what I 
understand, a very small subset of the Postgres user base. The 
expectation is that you will be installing from some sort of packaging 
system or using a pre-installed service.
