Let's assume without proof that Glibc developers are good. Similarly, kernel.org developers are good as are the gcc.gnu.org people.

Should glibc, gcc and the kernel be in a monorepo?

(Cue laugh track ...)

That is actually one of the advantages of the BSDs. Kernel and base system are in one repo and released together. It simplifies development and testing. and an easier upgrade for end-users.
This is the red tinged future linux is headed towards anyway.
Did you just invent the unikernel?
AFAIK, Unix did this, so BSD Unix did this, and the modern BSD derivatives still do this.
