First, "debconf always finds a way" is what we generally accept, and

think this is true.
On the other hand, we historically aren't that good at raising
unbounded sums of money globally.
Indeed. We're not especially good at raising money, which requires a
rather different skillset to the typical Debian person's, but very good
at the lateral thinking required to invent strange conference
arrangements outside typical conference venues and make them work.
(In addition, it's been my view for several years now that standard
conference venues won't work as well for DebConf even if we can afford
them, as our requirements are just too different, and places that host
many conferences get confused/upset by our strange demands and our
failure to conform to what they expect.)
