Specifically, if you look at https://github.com/facebook/mention-bot and note the alwaysNotifyForPaths option. The problem is what happens to the experts file? If we end up managing both that file and the mentionbot confis separately then it leads to a bifurcation of where we track that info. At that point we have to either consider something to use to easily update one based on the other (e.g. pull in the experts file and use it to update the mentionbot config), or we come up with our own solution to the problem. > .
