This can be true, regardless of the landing process. If a lot of people
are contributing, it is very easy to end up with conflicts. The time it
takes to have approved MPs merged into trunk is irrelevant. I agree that
faster is certainly better, but it does not explicitly solve the issue
you mention here, to do so.
