-1 I think there is still plenty of flakiness in the tests that PRs can go red due to something flaky. Blocking a merge when the issue is known to be flaky would be disruptive to progress. I think it will also just encourage someone to use direct pushing to work around false reds. This might lead to even worse transgressions, like merging changes without PRs.
Do we really have a problem with someone merging legitimately broken PRs?
