As for experimenting, I agree and I reiterate my invitation to
send
trivial patches to <https://codeberg.org/civodul/guix> (or to
Guix-Science, Guix-Past, etc.). I think this GCD’s discussion
period is
the right time to give it a try as it can better inform
discussions.
Based on Andreas's observations in [1]:

On the other hand, as soon as there is a patch series on
issues, it also
becomes more or less unreadable; after 5 versions of a 6-patch
series,
it becomes difficult to find the start of the current version
and all
comments in between.

It seems if we are basing our experimentations on only "trivial
patches"
that are sent to <https://codeberg.org/civodul/guix>, we may not
be
observing the instances where a forge-style review process
actually
struggles; our conclusions may be flawed.
We have had non-trivial patches with a number of revisions on the
guix-science channel.
Examples:
