Stacked diffs let you not have to evaluate the whole PR as a whole, and encourages smaller and more frequent commits.

Basically, I agree with you that large PRs are a problem, I just don't think it means you need to throw pre-land code review out the window.

Agree too bad stacked PRs aren’t really native to GH and you probably need to go with not so standard tools to manage them
Yes, it is unfortunate. I did link an announcement below that some form of this feature is coming, we'll see what it actually looks like when it goes public.
