I would say that it makes it easier to design a PR and then go back and update that PR as things evolve. For instance, you might decide you need one table so your first PR in the stack adds that table. But then you finish up with 2 or 3 more PRs and you get reviewed and you and your colleagues decide to add a 2nd table. Now you get to go back to that first PR, add the 2nd table and then you get to cleanly review that 2nd table. Then each PR in the stack also gets a clean small addition to handle the table, that can be reviewed in its own context with smaller diffs.

So the idea is you can much more cleanly isolate changes for large features.
