I will be interested in seeing how you address mutual compatibility of
packages.  If package A wants Monticello 1, and package B wants
Monticello 2, and we assume these Monticello's are incompatible, then
A and B are also incompatible.  How do you think to address this
issue?

Anyway, you are welcome to help out with the 3.10 development
universe, if that fits in with your goals, but with all due respect
you have to work with the existing team in that case.
