I agree one should be able to get most of the testing value from stage1.
And the tooling team at IOHK has done some work in
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/3652 to allow a
stage 1 compiler to be tested. That's a very important first step!
But TH and GHCi require either
This seems quite reasonable to me.
Not sure about the cost of implementing it (and the feasability of it
if/when merge-trains arrive).

Let me know if I'm talking nonsense, but I believe that we are building
both stages for each architecture and flavour. Do we need to build two
stages everywhere? What stops us from building a single stage? And if
anything, what can we change to get into a situation where we can?

Incremental CI can cut multiple hours to < mere minutes, especially with the
test suite being embarrassingly parallel. There simply no way optimizations to
the compiler independent from sharing a cache between CI runs can get anywhere
close to that return on investment.
I rather agree with
