The linked page refers to a tool called “git-repo”, which smooths out the more technical bits to commands like “git pr”. From appearances it seems like using this tool is lower-investment for users than configuring (or changing!) their email client to interact with mailing lists and the mail-in patch workflow properly. It also helps that this (optional?) special tool is more “orthogonal” to other workflows, rather than involving something as central as emails.
