Broken only for some OE use cases. Not broken for others.
The wrong solution to the problem is to replace a recipe that works for
the people who use it with a recipe that creates untested output. U-boot
is a fiddly piece of software, updates should be tested on hardware
before they are pushed.
Let's keep the focus on the real issue here, disappearing sources versus
recipes that produce untested output.
Disappearing sources are an issue beyond just rebased git repos. Distros
that provide binaries to end users must provide for this event to
provide GPL compliance. So it really is not a big deal.
