I am confused by this, isn't Bisect just some git ergonomics with respect to flagging a checked out commit as a success failure and then checking out the next midway commit depending of if it was a success/failure to enable classic binary search?

It might be slightly more tedious but couldn't you just do the same thing manually and it would add just a couple minutes to the search and you would still save weeks? I like the ergonomics but only use it once every couple years.
