If you want to quickly check out on a new machine, you have to rebuild it all, and all will be synced. If you want to edit it online and use CI, you would maybe need to cache megabytes of state between runs. And that's for media files. For renderd HTML files, the smallest change could require rebuilding most of the pages. Unless I missed something obvious, that's quite a trade-off. It's not a criticism per se, just something from my experience which contradicts the orginal post.
