Bazel is an investment to learn for sure but your effort estimates are way overblown. We have a Python, Go, and Typescript monorepo that I setup for our team and rarely have to touch anything. Engineers rarely think about Bazel as we use Gazelle to generate all our build files and have patterns for most everything we need to do.

Compared with build efforts using other tools and non-monorepo setups at other companies the effort here has felt much reduced.
