If we do this we should do so when we are ready to respect the macOS26 build results the same as the other OSes. Chris, the advantage is rapid debugging turnaround for contributors who do not have their own macOS 26 system to work on. I get that. My point though was I don’t necessarily agree that we should ignore the results when we enable this OS in the pipelines.
