We are losing the build for PR for folks who later submit patches as
the price for that.  "building each and every branch" stay constant
and the trade-off is between building four integration branches on
Windows and allowing contributors to easily check their work early.

If your "But I think it is an improvement" was followed by "to check
the four branches on Windows continuously", though, I wouldn't have
had to ask the question, as I tend to agree it is a better trade
off.

Thanks.
