How did they manage to achieve the literally impossible thing for many years before this transition?

You can literally think about/edit other things while your simple border radius is being updated. No rot involved

this is an unserious reply. and if you are serious then you're likely not a frontend developer. often you want to test if a certain kind of hack fix works. your mind becomes glued to thinking about "does that fix it?" - hence why it's not easy to branch into a new line of thought then just come back to the change you pushed minutes ago. You're pretty much suggesting that the developer context changes into another thing for anywhere between 1 and 4 minutes and then context switches back to see if the build worked. The task that you'd be context switching into for 1-4 minutes will be interrupted by another thing and you'll likely make no progress doing it
