This might present a problem if they actually do try and fork it. I imagine it would take more time a patience to run a competing fork than to interact with current Debian.

Not that a fork is necessarily the wrong thing to do if your ideas of what Debian should be differ enough from where it's going. It's just that it sounds like it would be a fair amount of work :)
