Well: in all cases where I defined a dependency of task B to a task
A, with disabled org-depend I end up seeing task B on the agenda
although I can not do it at the moment.

So as long as I don't use dependencies, it does not matter. However,
I'm organizing a lecture in the summer term using a very large and
complicated yankpad/yasnippet template for the whole term that is
using many dependencies for approx. 70 todos. With disabled
org-depend, I end up seeing all 70 todos although I may be able to
work on two or three of them at any moment in time.

This sounds reasonable.

I'm fine with - let's say - +50% 1-day agenda duration and I'm fine
with even an hour of 60d agenda export to ics with enabled
org-depend.  The show-stopper is, when org-depend does run in an
error after hours of exporting without a result. This way, I'm
losing my Org->Android/Radicale workflow or my dependencies.

The longer this thread gets, the more I have to accept that I might
be the only one using dependencies in Org mode. I'm puzzled here
because I do think that dependencies are such a natural thing to
want and use. (I also have several ideas to improve usability of
them to minimize manual effort when defining dependencies.)

So maybe I have to invest a weekend or so to bisect the issue. My
gut feeling tells me that I won't like the output somehow.
