Just so I'm understanding this post correctly...are you saying that long-lived branches are bad? Or that using branches in general is bad? Or having too many branches is bad?

In any scenario, I'm not sure if you're advocating more towards "use less branches" or "use better CI" or maybe neither of those two.

I do see some validity towards your case but I feel like there's some background information missing. Maybe "Why Branching on Git is Dangerous" would've been less provocative but maybe provocative is what you were going for. Regardless, an interesting post indeed.
