I concur. gbp is not without issues, but as you said, gbp is easier to
reason about and fix.

I don't use gbp daily. In fact, I maintain or edit existing packages not
as frequently as I would like, often having to re-read the documentation
along the way.

The fact that gbp is better documented is a big plus, even if everything
else would be equal. Simplicity goes a long way for cooperative
maintenance. I'm relieved gbp is now the recommended choice.
