This is the DEBIAN-user mailing list. If this was intended to discourage such questions here, I think it is not a fair objection. I've therefore expressed my own view on the subject, concisely, in the subject line. 1. https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2017/08/msg01454.html

Your comparison fails because Tails is a distribution of its own not part of Debian in any way, just as Ubuntu or many or the other derivatives of Debian. Whatever you find in Tails, is there because of a Tails developer put it there. -- Do not eat animals, respect them as you respect people. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=how+to+(become+OR+eat)+vegan

"just as Ubuntu or many *of* the other derivatives of Debian." Fair enough. Tails is a debian derivative that is not a Debian Pure Blend[1]; ie, it is not merely "a subset of Debian that is configured to support a particular target group out-of-the-box". At first, I thought that it might be a Pure Blend. FWiW, This page convinced me you are correct: https://tails.boum.org/contribute/relationship_with_upstream/ Thank you for elaborating. 1. https://wiki.debian.org/DebianPureBlends

I am perpelexed by this last statement, since the uri in the error message reported by the Tails user[1] Failed - 0B - InRelease - tor+http://vwakviie2ienjx6t.onion/ debian stretch InRelease points to what the release notes suggest is a debian repository[2]. 1. https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2017/08/msg01420.html 2. https://www.debian.org/releases/stretch/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#deprecation-of-ftp-apt-mirrors

LOL! All right, my friend. That is indeed a conceivable interpretation of what you said. Thank you for bikeshedding with me. Hopefully we can do it again sometime. -- @InternetHippo 22 Jul 2017 | Life before the internet was awful.
