Any reason for debian not having an -unknown version like lot of the other distros?
I don't think there's a specific reason for that, it's probably just a matter of nobody thinking of it until now :)
In addition to that, considering that there already entries for Debian testing and Fedora Rawhide, adding one for Debian unstable might make sense too.
That would be lovely if 'debian-unknown' and 'debian11' could be available on Bullseye!!! :)
Is it intentional that the Debian URLs in the output of 'osinfo-query os' point to 'debian.org/debian/VERSION_ID' instead of 'debian.org/releases/VERSION_ID|VERSION_CODENAME'?
The URLs are not a pointer to any specific resource. They are just an arbitrarily invented unique identifier & once released, we must never change any URL. By convention we pick a short "product name" as the first path component, because over time vendors have introduced new or parallel products. Thus '/releases/' would not be future proof. As an example, Fedora has both the traditional 'fedora' OS releases and 'silverblue'.
