That’s the part about monorepos I can’t quite wrap my mind around - yes deploying a single large change to many different systems simultaneously is cool in theory, but how does it actually pan out? Deployment is never instant, so any system-to-system breaking changes would cause a short downtime while everything deploys. In the world I operate in, that’s absolutely not acceptable.

Not that you can’t still make your changes backwards compatible with themselves. But if I’m going to have to deploy everything in two steps anyway, what’s the point?
