Focusing on merge and cycle times is fine, but speed doesn’t guarantee quality. I’d like to see more on how this impacts stability and user experience over time.

Totally fair. Speed is just one piece—it's key to balance it with quality and stability. Faster cycles are great, but only if they don’t compromise long-term project health.

it barely touches on how maintainability and contributor ex. are affected. The Dora report also touches on burnouts and dev health. Speed alone isn’t the whole picture. Would love to see something related to that as well. Will these posts be updated?
