The downstream testing will help, particularly running against shaded
artifacts [1]. Precommit should replace as many of the rote tasks as
possible, particularly checks on invariants like shading. Computers
are good at checking this. Humans are not only bad at it, it's tedious
as hell. Particularly repeating it in every branch.

Again, let's continue disabling, deleting, and reverting changes that
make the CI infra unstable. Precommit is doing its job, but
garbage-in, garbage-out. -C
