One of the advantage of big monorepos (and Linux really is just one big "monorepo") is that you can change $whatever as long as you also fix everything that depends on that. Sometimes this is just simple stuff, like adding a function argument, changing a type, or something like that. "Break whatever" is a bit of a crude way of putting it, but yeah, it's definitely an advantage IMHO. Not just for the final patch, but also prototyping, experimenting, showing ideas, etc.
