With this I'll need to run through all of these profiles with
repoman -e=y and wait a long time, instead of just the two (well, with
17.0 now 4) profiles that I actually care about and checks enough. I
also will see a TON of issues from the musl profiles down below that
main block (it doesn't inherit base or something).

This would make arm64 work completely impossible, so NAK from me.

Additionally if depgraph wouldn't be broken anymore, we would be moving
them to stable, not some separate "dev" step.

Same goes for the mips main block changes.
