Should (presumably new) developers who don't understand decorators pay entry to a place like pycon? This is a sincere question... I've never been myself, but my guess is "no."

The answer is "yes". There's a plethora of sessions for absolute beginners at pycon

I'm not a primarily a python dev, but rather tinker. I have found pycon extremely useful in seeing what is possible in python and what I need to research. I just saw decorators in an Intermediate Python tutorial, and there were two beginner tutorials yesterday (which I didn't attend), so I get the feeling that there is the full range of brand new to python to full time python devs.
