Who tf looks at feature branches unless it's particularly relevant to them or they're reviewing a PR?
It's not like they merge half-baked features straight to master every day lol
So what exactly are we losing?
You can't review changes in the next build before it's actually released?
Currently you can still keep up with the master branch. PRs are merged a fair bit more often than new builds are made.
Ah and nobody outside of Google can contribute to Android development. I believe up till now if you found a bug you could fix it and open a PR? No?
