1. You can have both. Parts of our site (Our World in Data) the researchers edit via a GUI, but under the hood it is making a commit and pushing to GitHub. My guess is MDN just hasn't gotten around to that yet?
2. GitHub and GitLab are a lot better nowadays at allowing you to edit markdown docs via the web and preview the results in a few clicks. Not quite as frictionless as 1 click, however if you are an editor and are constantly bombarded by spam, probably saves a lot of time as you know the person who is making the change and they are forced to add an explanation via commit message.

Yeah, it's really really convenient to submit a quick PR entirely in the GitHub Web UI. But I admit, we have some work to do make the previewing experience a bit better.
