Trust me, people still call it trunk based development. Just like “agile” has many forms, trunk based development does too.
Managers will often read about some process, tech, or strategy and tout it as the solution to their problems without understanding context nor wanting to invest in what’s actually required for a successful implementation. For example trunk based development should have automated testing, a deployment and a fallback strategy. And if you’re working on something with hefty features that you can’t slice, feature flags or something similar are probably required. Not giving the team time to develop a strategy to implement that is a great way to mess up a product.
