Opinion about full-stack web app teams? (programming.dev)

What is your opinion about full-stack teams? I'm referring to teams where the desire is for every member to competently contribute at every point in the stack.

Do they work?
What has been your experience?
Does team size and/or experience level inform your opinion?
Do you notice an increase/decrease in quality?
Do you notice an increase/decrease in team and product cohesion?

Think of a T. This is the breadth and depth desirable on a team. Everyone has familiarity with every technology involved. However, only a few people have deep understanding of different aspects. Helps with the 80/20 of a lot of projects. The deep tech folks prep for the broad tech. Works great!

Is that "full stack"? Close enough for marketing speak. ;)
