As an end user of the software much of this internal engineering of WordPress should be no concern of mine. To use a Mac comparison, it should just work. The fact that these issues are highlighted explains much of the anxiety that the block editor and the Gutenberg project has brought to the WordPress community. Lately I have seen Toolset announce that they would be pausing much of their development on the Toolset suite due to issues such as this. This is a big no no as years of work look like it could be ripped out if third party plugins are adversely tipped out by the whims of some project methodology that doesn’t secure the work done by others. Bit of a lack of respect there.
