I've seen feature branches attacked a lot and the common refrain is always the same. They live for weeks and then are hard to merge back in. This is why you should be merging main back into your feature branch daily, so imo this is just a strawman. That's assuming it's not reasonable to have smaller features. Sometimes it's not. You should strive for feature branches that live for a day or two, but if you MUST have it longer, just merge back in.
