I don't follow this argument.  I do understand that debs built without the regulation provided by the Debian organisation could be possibly non-compliant with Debian standards, but I fail to see that a "debfind.net" could not enforce compliance if the maintainers of "debfind.net" chose to do so.  There's no logical reason that two separately administered quality control systems could not adhere to the same standards.

If someone was sufficiently concerned about this, they would take it upon themselves to do something about it.
