Is this because of the poor quality of the students? Other users here have said that teaching there is a risk factor simply due to the poor quality of students they get, and FAA comes after instructors a bit more to reduce the problem. Whenever I have flown out of DVT I literally heard the most frustrated ATC radio transmissions ever. They must get to the breaking point every now and then. Many of the flight students really are not competent in English.
