256-256: Consistent update removes Debian 11 workaround.

The change mirrors the Ubuntu documentation update and successfully removes the Debian 11-specific workaround mentioned in the commit message. This provides a cleaner, more maintainable solution.

The same verification requested for the Ubuntu file applies here – please confirm the stable URL is compatible with Debian 12 (and potentially Debian 11 as mentioned in the guide's introduction).

247-247: The stable URL is officially recommended by NVIDIA – this change is correct.

The URL https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/stable/deb/nvidia-container-toolkit.list is confirmed as the officially documented installation method in NVIDIA's Container Toolkit documentation. The URL is accessible and functional across Ubuntu versions, with proper variable expansion ($(ARCH)) handled server-side. This simplification removes unnecessary distribution-specific logic while maintaining correctness.
