I think that you are 100% wrong on that.

The handful people who are choosing Debconf locations cannot make
political statements on behalf of the whole project.

If a Debconf location is also considered a political statement as you 
imply then we have to choose Debconf locations by means of GR, starting 
with a GR right now whether Debian wants to consider Kosovo a 
self-determined sovereign nation by holding Debconf 2022 there.

If Debian would ever consider Taiwan a self-determined sovereign nation,
we would de facto exclude people in China from contributing to Debian.

Is holding a Debconf in Israel a political statement by Debian that 
people in Palestine should not have to right to vote in any country?
