"New VCS, but Git is a first-class backend" is an amazingly smart decision. It's the only chance you actually have of supplanting git. It's a new VCS with enough workflow benefit to be worth making a user switch (in contrast to most git alternate command lines) but provides an easy migration path where you don't have to make a "whole repository" decision. It's an individual engineer decision, that still allows using your existing servers (Github/lab).
