You are wasting a lot of hardware resources we don't have by abusing
experimental as a CI. Don't do that.

I have a string feeling that it is easier for Debian to set up more hardware (I'm thinking of the "how should we spend the money we have" mails) than it is to find more maintainers. 

Using the resources we have if that saves time on the developer side seems reasonable to me. But IMHO, it would be better to use Salsa CI für that, not experimental.
