First of all, checker requests are to be made at https://project-gc.com/forum/list?8 rather than here (hence the OBSOLETE in the category name).

Secondly, your second condition would not be allowed as listed, since several of the badges are for things not allowed as challenge conditions (for example, The Author and The Diverse Cacher). You would have to specify the subset of badges which would be allowed for qualification.

Badges in themselves are not a valid challenge criteria so your point is moot.

Furthermore, I don't think it's valid even disregarding that. It's like saying that you need to have logged 10 different cache types and that none of them can be a lab cache since lab caches can't be used for challenge criteria. What the guidelines say is that you can't require lab cache finds. As far as I can tell, it's OK to include them if you do have them. I.e. a challenge for number of cache types logged can accept lab caches, the calendar checker can accept lab cache finds, etc - as long as it's not a requirement. In the same way, it's OK for the calendar checker to count leap day as one of 200 required dates even though it's not OK to require finds on leap day.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. Badges have been allowed as challenge criteria previously, as long as they are restricted to the approximately 30 badges which would follow challenge guidelines. This is because the badges themselves are not "information broadly available on Geocaching.com" (guideline 4), so are considered shorthand for criteria and are treated as such.

As for your lab cache example, lab caches are allowed as long as they are not required.
