This is indeed true. I remember several people joking that pecha kucha would fork and fragment before its third event. Pecha kucha is evidence that a little openness and trust in the process can be the very glue that keeps a format strong, engendering morale among audience and organisers alike as it grows. It would be sad for your Juxtaposium experiment to suffer death by discussion. Start small, go rouge, find out whether the idea (or your implementation of it) holds water. You have plenty of knowledge to gain either way.
