@potiuk thanks for the detailed thoughts and comments. I think the behavior of the `ShortCircuitOperator` is better than the branching operator in that it works with statically defined dependencies, e.g. "if not Sunday, skip". Also [compare the ergonomics](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67666968/can-we-configure-different-schedule-interval-for-different-tasks-within-a-dag) between the short-circuit operator and [BranchDayOfWeekOperator](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/howto/operator/weekday.html), the latter having in my opinion a rather awkward interface. I think you make some good points and a benefit is that the _skip reason_ is very obvious (when an operator is used to check the execution time). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
