Sure, that seems reasonable to me. For some packages (Shell, GTK,
that sort of thing) we can predict with 90% confidence that we'll need
bookworm updates, and for some packages (games and other leaf packages)
we can predict with reasonable confidence that we won't.

During freeze that seems a completely reasonable convention to have
(and I personally like it better than debian/unstable).

I would say yes, but I don't consider myself to be a maintainer of the
Evolution family of packages.
