I haven't said this, but I really appreciate contributors (like you) pacing their series submission perfectly with the rate of related topics in flight solidifying. If people hold off sending new and dependent topics for too long, that would waste available review and testing bandwidth, but if people send them while the other topics that they depend on are not yet in a good shape, it would require conflict resolutions that may get wasted when the depended topics have to be updated.

I've been trying to be more explicit in the "What's cooking" report what my evaluation of each topic's "doneness" is, to help contributors who need to send new topics that may conflict with the topics that are already cooking, and I hope it helped in your (and other contributors') pacing their submissions to help the process run more smoothly.

THanks.
