Really good read.

One thing they didn't cover was why the monorepo is so appealing to facebook

If I had to guess I'd say it's because fundamentally Facebook development is about deploying servers.

As you move through the main branch, at any commit, you should have something that you can deploy. The moment you split the repo you lose this, and need to worry about keeping multiple repos aligned.
