I’ve done sesshins in several lineages in Japan, the U.S., and Europe, and never once encountered the idea that they “involve working with and receiving the precepts”.
As another commenter said, hey may serve as an occasion to have a precepts ceremony for those among the participants who have been preparing to receive them, but that’s not the purpose of the sesshin and it is usually just a few people.
There's nothing here!
