As more of the feature development goes into EE, there is less of a need to back port the latest changes. There are tons of workflow processes I would love to more tightly integrate with GitLab, but not all of them would make sense outside of my organization. Some of them can be hacked together with bots, but some of them require extending the core functionality and would probably require a fork.

I think this is the problematic mindset. Meaningful contributions to upstream will follow useful forks.

Code churn doesn't just slow down forks, it slows down core development.
