Most of your reasonning depends on the assumption that Tails is
only based on Debian stable. This is wrong:
http://git.immerda.ch/?p=amnesia.git;a=blob_plain;f=config/chroot_apt/preferences;hb=refs/heads/devel
I don't think we could build Tails *only* on top of Debian stable / LTS.

This is what I meant previously by (Tails is) "built upon a whole
autonomous world (that is, Debian repositories) that is constantly
changing".

In the hope it helps you clarify how your ideas fit into the wider
situation of Tails, and possibly adapt your suggestions accordingly,

cheers,
