Comment (by ellatrix):

 > It's very difficult to follow through the process to figure out where
 the issue actually is, what changes have been made to related code, etc. I
 recognize some of this is due to my own personal habits, but this is how I
 have been investigating.

 Wasn't this the same previously for all GB related code? We'd have to
 search both repos?

 > The distributed hosting tests are still broken for many of the hosts
 participating.

 Could you link to these? It's hard to understand what's happening without
 specifics.

 > There are reports of GitHub Actions workflows failing within private
 forks.

 Could you also link to these reports to understand the issues?

 > GitHub Action workflows that run the build script were taking 30-40%
 longer after the changes here.

 Is that fixed since [61673]?

 > Atomic changes across the project: changes still need to be made in
 multiple locations, and coordinating these changes feels more complicated.

 Syncing Gutenberg is now much easier without the need for publishing
 packages, so I'm not sure how coordinating changes is now more
 complicated?

 > Consistent tooling and standards
 > Better visibility

 What's different here from before? We didn't have these benefits of a
 monorepo before either? A huge amount of files were not version
 controlled. There's only a tiny fraction of files that have changed to be
 no longer version controlled in core.
