The point of being hard to use is valid. But I would focus more on being hard to learn instead. Once you know it you forgot about it 99% of times, for other 1% it's good to have this "git expert" on a team ;)

For other points there seems to be ongoing process [0][1] and I think in one year or more having huge monorepos with binary files should not be such a big problem or require additional tools. It should be build in core git.

Permissions seems to be partially "solved" by git hosting sites like Github. But I agree it's a pity we don't have anything build in core git for this :(
