There were quite a few issues with gating the stable branch just before the holidays and it took a while to work through them. Meanwhile, the commits were blocked from merging. That's not such a big deal for the stable branch since it only really affected me, but it's a different story with master. Do you feel those issues were one-offs and we won't see similar issues again? How about leaving it for another week and seeing how many issues crop up? Bear in mind that, from your perspective, each might be fairly minor and fixed quickly, but if it means other folks struggling to figure out what's going on for half a day, that will get old quickly. Maybe my concern is really that the number of people who can fix issues is quite small - with the stable branch issues it seemed to be one of you, Monty or Jesse - and it's not always even very clear whether the issue is with one's commit or tests themselves.
