Creating a safe space seems very reasonable, but I'm not sure I agree that the implication is that the remaining space is therefore fundamentally "unsafe." Emotional topics can definitely benefit from intellectual discussion, but it is not unreasonable to say that a portion of the population may very well not want to be a part of it

Why, then, isn't the "safe space" (in this case) anywhere that isn't the lecture hall holding the specific debate?

Perhaps that is why the word "safe" was chosen. It's a fairly odd term for what it actually is.
