Indeed. I also see it, but also I got a few manually pushed "must fix
quickly" to gitbox, and actually I find it really nice - because it is
still possible, but it require some extra effort and deliberate "ok that
one really should be pushed to unblock everyone" - as long as we all
(especially those people that are active in the
#internal-airfow-ci-cd channel) know how to do it and can fix things
quickly, this is actually a nice way to make it into "exceptional" workflow
- which will push us more in making sure airflow main is really "green" -
which ultimately is our goal to make it as green as possible all the time.

What **might help with that** (and also keeping the "enable auto merge"
might motivate it more to) is to:

* speed up the builds - we MUST prioritise now ARC (K8S self-hosted
runners) to make our builds simply faster - I started a discussion and a
small group of people who can work together to complete it after Hussein's
POC)
* speed up the image release - with ARM runners (which we might be able to
do independently as recently I think we have hypervisor-enabled ARM images
available as public runners as github made it generally available).
* speed up the doc builds for airflow-site - we (mainly Pavan) are close to
complete offloading of the historical release docs to S3 and I hope it will
cut down a lot on doc publishing workflows.
