As best as I can tell, yes. I have at least one package in epel8 that doesn't have the package.cfg and it works okay. It just doesn't build stuff automatically on epel8-playground. You might get bug reports from people who have epel8-playground enabled and can't install your package though.

You might get wider input on this on the epel-devel mailing list.

Also, I think there is some plan in the works to change how epel8-playground works.

Can I have the extra commit that added the file removed by
force-pushing the prior commit, so it's easier to fast-forward merge
my 'master' branch onto epel8 without doing a bunch of crazy git merge
nonsense so they have the same HEAD commit?

I don't think you can force-push to dist-git so unfortunately you're stuck with that commit forever. There *is* a way to get your branches created without that commit in the first place, but it's too late for that now.

Can I have the epel8-playground branch removed? I never wanted it. I
know I can just ignore it and never check it out locally... but...
it's going to bug me being there on the remote.

Nope, you can't remove branches on dist-git.
