The main reason would be that the Debian maintainer would be unaware of the tweaks/hacks done to Skolelinux, and thus risk wasting time looking for the cause of a bug in the wrong places. This is off course not the case if Joey is maintaining Debian Installer, but I think he is not alone in this task, and maybe not all knows how harmless that "single added udeb" might be. So, I propose for the "bug-reporting for dummies" to recommend mentioning in bugreports that Skolelinux is used. This gives the Debian packager that small hint of "maybe those Skolelinux guys added a single udeb to the chain that makes/reveals errors in the preseeding, so I better check with them if the bugreport should be moved to their own system".
