on the flip side of this, there’s those of us who hate the superfluous (opinion) processes that seem only to slow down, not speed up.

PRs don’t need checklists IMO. If they do maybe your team is too large.

I think a little checklist would help me remember things that are easy to forget, like updating documentation or making sure that a test exists to reproduce the issue. That said, at the end of the day tools exist to help us, not slow us down. If they is a small PR that fixes a typo then I want to be trusted to skip the checklist completely.
