Sorry, but I am confused.

The change to add "make &&" before testing scalar is a good change that allows CI to work with "existing paradigm for contrib/" that is "you need to build the top before doing anything in contrib/".

But none of the contrib/ stuff is tested in the pedantic job, but if I understand correctly, we start some (namely, scalar) stuff in it tested there, deviating from existing practice. Is that intended?
