Monorepos are indeed causing problems with git, and this is one of the main arguments against them (see [1]). Some companies are building their own solutions (Google, Meta), and some are splitting their monorepos because of these problems. IMO if a company wants to run a monorepo for their reasons, they shouldn't be limited by their VCS.

The technical details are for the readers who want to know, I agree it's not really important for the users (most of them, at least).
