I’m using worktrees for this. Makes more sense IMHO.

Yes, there are a million first-party and third-party bandaids you can use on top of git to try and approximate a sensible workflow. I was a heavy user of `git-revise`.

All of these workarounds just… don't exist in jj, nor do they need to.

It’s not a bandaid, it’s working on two features which should be done on two separate clones. Worktrees avoid having to fully clone the repository, which is cool, but I’d use multiple clones if this did not exist.
(But to be clear Jj has worktrees if you do like that workflow)
Whoops, TIL jj has worktrees!
