Instead of "stacked diffs", isn't the more "continuous integration" solution to split a big feature into small chunks that actually get merged?

Having to rebase again and again is a symptom that a dev branch is living for too long.

I’m amazed that this comment is so low down

Stacked diffs seems like a solution to managing high WIP - but the best solution to high WIP is always to lower WIP

Absolutely everything gets easier when you lower your work in progress.

This seems idealistic. It's very normal to be working on a feature that depends on a not-yet-merged feature.

Oh sure, many bad ideas and poor practises such as that one are quite "normal". It's not a recommendation.
