Here's an illustrative story. In my .bashrc file I have *18* aliases for building subdirectories within Firefox: js, xpconnect, xpcom, layout, etc. I used to use them all the time... but I only now realized that I haven't used any of them in months. |mach build binaries| suffices most of the time, and when I do change something other than a .h/.cpp file, I just use |mach build| and my fast machine (with ccache) builds quickly enough. That's a nice reduction in mental load, and it greatly reduces the chance of frankenbuilds. Not everyone will have the same code modification patterns as me, but plenty will. I call that progress.
