But debian/copyright does not have a stanza for that file
(license-incompatibility.md)...
If you really consider me as a co-author (despite the very little
contribution I provided), then you should create a separate stanza in
the debian/copyright:

  Files: tech-notes/license-incompatibility.md
  Copyright: 2024 Serafeim Zanikolas <[email protected]>
             2024 Francesco Poli <[email protected]>
  License: Expat

Also, I would suggest to not repeat the Expat license text multiple
times, it's probably better, if you put the license text into a stanza
on its own...

Thanks!
