It might even work, since it's at the core of the design of everything else and clearly pretty thought through, but my programmer-with-delusion-of-grandeur spider senses did start to tingle when I first heard of it.

From my experience working with Unity at work and Godot after work, both of them have the advantage/disadvantage cases for me. It's a bit annoying I need to use different methods/ways of thinking in Unity for Scenes and prefabs while it feels they are just both ways to group gameobjects.

But than it is kinda nice to unload a scene in Unity/load a new scene and now that anything that isn't a singleton just goes away and that's that. You can do similiar in Godot with active scene loading but it can get a bit confused at times/requires me to add some await seconds/await frames.

Then again, the Scene loading in Unity is a bit scuffed in that it forces you to bundle the scene, light data and navmesh data all into one thing, and if you want to disconnect them you have to hack like crazy.
So separating them would probably be a big improvement

Yeah, if no one doesn't need those, not having proper way to decouple can be annoying. At the same time if one needs those in each scene than it's nice out of box so yeah 😄 All about advantages vs disadvantages and looking into what is the best tool for ones project or which engine feels most fun.
