Of course not since it’s not a problem it can solve.

The problem it tries to solve is having to rebase / merge by hand, racing for CI, and the risk of going “fuck it” and merging a change with does not conflict but is semantically incompatible with a previous change.

Most of the time your colleagues’ changes and yours don’t interfere, but on repos with lots of traffic losing the CI race and having to rebase, wait for CI again, rinse and repeat, gets old quick, when the test suite takes more than a few seconds.
