I won't comment on the bursary process/stats because these things change
over time. As I said, it's just much better to contact the current team
instead if one has any question related to it.
I appreciate the time you're taking to help a potencial atteendee on
this subject, but, for the records, I have to point here that your
answer is inaccurate. Either the '50:1' ratio or '550 accepted bursaries
in Germany' don't make any sense at all.

There's no trick, everything one should know is documented in the
website: https://debconf18.debconf.org/about/bursaries/ and in the
registration form itself.
Again, your help is welcome, but sometimes simply pointing people to
those who know the answers is much more valuable than conjecturing.
Bests,
