I am not sure I understand this sentence?

I suspect that a possible problem will be that we can't guarantee in the
future that a particular subdirectory in the monorepo won't move, be split,
reorganized, or that its build script will be tested in CI independently of
the rest of the repo.
Otherwise providing a read-only repo that contains only a subset of the
monorepo isn't very difficult: someone has to provide a machine to
continuously update the read-only "view".
