>- you need a team dedicated to building bazel rules for whatever doesn't already have rules (see: you must convert everything). This team is a bottleneck This is a major issue. A good build tool shouldn't require a dedicated team. Ideally a build tool should function as sort of a settings menu for the project.

> This is a major issue. A good build tool shouldn't require a dedicated team. Build systems are complex because they solve issues which only exist because of how OSes handle libraries and executables. I am pessimistic we can ever solve that issue in a capitalist society. I will be optimistic if we have a new major OS that isn't Windows, Linux, or MacOS in our lifetime or we solve death.
