Because Teckids have their own goals and focus, so it's perfectly
fine for them to define the rules for their workshops, provided
they'll be offered at DebConf.

We're open to them and most other ideas, but we'll need to organise

As you well know, Teckids isn't our only focus.

All of this is possible and just needs doing…
Thanks for your feedback in any case. This is new terrain for
DebConf and we'll need to find our way. The way to help is to get
