> You'll want to start "stacked" commits that are based on the pieces that are atomic but not merged. That sucks, because the tooling isn't yet great at handling that

The tooling for that is called a branch with multiple commits and it works fine. The unit for something that makes sense as a single commit and what makes sense to review together is not the same and forcing the latter to be as small as the former will only lead to merging dead ends that are fine on their own but don't actually lead to the optimal goal.
