Drawing parallels to the real world, what if the reason that the Greeks built temples as they did was because it was necessary for the permanent Forbiddance effect? What if vespers were necessary to ward a church with Magic Circle versus evil until morning? A Coronation (or similar lesser ceremony) is necessary to allow the new lord to be able to teleport into and out of his castle?
You hit it on the nose. This is pretty much exactly what I'm inclined towards having teleport defenses be.
