quite most of these steps I usually need to do locally before I do any 
upload of packages. So I see no real gain to run any pipeline by 
default, for me this would be just burning energy in CPU cycles just for 
"because we can".

CI/CD makes sense for me within a greater view such as is a version 
upgrade of package A not break other stuff in other packages, like does 
working all packages that now need to use a new version of pytest or 
setuptools, django etc. But that's not ready within the current way the 
default CI pipeline is working (in my POV).

So no, for me it makes currently no sense to enable a CI thingy for ALL 
packages by default!

We have automatic Lintian checks, the buildds itself, and also the 
autopkgtest infrastructure, why double such things, that's waste of 
energy and resources! The packages are not getting better by running 
tests multiple times within the same environment.
And given my experience within other teams and groups, nobody really 
cares about packages that fail in some tests within a CI run. I strongly 
believe it wouldn't be better here.

I still don't see why this is a benefit.
If you use an CI option within your own namespace is another thing, 
doing so make sense to me to prepare a new version for uploading.
