Agreed; caused by paying too much attention to rpmlint check as opposed
to the case itself :)  Looks like the order of checks there would
deserve to be reversed.  But even in its current form, 655 would be
spotted.

I was to argue that 444 would be even saner (lvm2 and device-mapper do this
in RHEL, for example), but for some reason it seems non-standard to mark
something root-non-writeable (Debian:[1], Fedora:N/A).
