Maybe. Different organisations work at different paces and with different contention rates. If you're on a small team and less being tugged about then you might not find value with this stuff.

But I frequently have cases where I have some changes I'm making to repo `acme`. I'll put a PR up for review and then I'll start on a second PR for the same repo. I stack these commits on top of my previous PR. If I then notice a problem in the earlier work I can easily fix it and have the changes ripple down to the later PR. Or if somebody else merges something in against `main` it's really easy using `jj rebase` to move my commits against the new version of `main`. With a single `jj rebase` I can move all of my stacked PRs over to the new version of `main` and have every stacked PR updated.
