Good questions. We are planning to continue work on the linker during the freeze on dev.link—at a bare minimum, there are still a lot of loose ends that we should tie up while they're still fresh—though stabilization will take priority. We are not planning to merge dev.link to master during the freeze, though we will continue merging master into dev.link so it should be easy to land when the tree reopens. The feature flag is really intended to be a heavy-handed emergency revert strategy in case something turns out to be seriously broken. We wouldn't want to break something by continuing development on master during the freeze and then have to use it.

Quick follow-up question - will merges to master continue during the
freeze, given that there's a flag to go back to the old linker? Or will
they pile up until the tree reopens for 1.16?
This is assuming that work on the new linker continues during the
freeze, which might not be a correct assumption. Maybe it pauses
entirely to focus on stability and fixes for master.
