Did Bill allow his students to teach and design because of a sense of
urgency or because of his rejection of the establishment and of systems of
control?

These steps you're taking are a common approach in many industries and are
part and parcel to the fascist economic system. While ostensibly about
ensuring quality or credibility, they are actually forms of economic
warfare wherein you establishing barriers to entry to keep out competition
in order to keep rates high.

This is at odds with the evangelical impulse to spread Permaculture as far
and wide as possible and convert as many acres as possible.

This has occurred many times before in many industries and every time
quality is used as a justification; but in reality it frequently only
establishes an unthinking orthodoxy adverse to change and adaptation and
out of step with reality.

These systems don't improve quality so much as serve to select for the
kind of people who are willing to jump through hoops. Meaning the
innovators will leave the movement.
