> If there is an issue with a single deploy, it stops the whole company from shipping changes.

I don't agree with this characterization. There is a way to 'lock' an entire repo from deploys, but it's not very frequently used. Single-service deploy blocks are common (if an autodeploy fails, or a team is aware of an issue and actively fixing it).

Stripe uses Bazel heavily.

This quote from the post is also not true to my knowledge: new repos are not allowed and teams are actively working to migrate small repos into the monorepo(s).



Thanks for the feedback, and very glad to hear that there's a distinction going on between merging and deploying.
