That begs other questions. The relevant reviewer isn’t available until Wednesday. Do I start on the next tasks in dependent branches? The act of making all those branches is a large part of the inherent busywork. And then I need to remember to get back to them when the reviewer gets back.

The benefit of all these small PRs is yet to be revealed.

Why are you starting work you can’t finish for days/weeks?

Is the dialogue here that you ask questions that makes the workflow more and more constrained and then when X factors are fixed it becomes obvious that the workflow works great?

Of course I start on work that I (not the reviewer) can work on right now.
