I'm a fan of Godot, so I'll state that in the beginning, so I'm biased. But I took a look at her(?) GitHub page and wondered why there isn't more effort being put into this branch. Even from his own words, ECs is a more efficient style when a large number of objects/nodes are involved, or when optimization becomes important.
At the moment Godot is really only viable as a 2D engine, as it tends to bog down when used as a 3D game engine even though it has all but replaced the default Blender engine (their recommendation). So in order to get a viable 3D project, a user would have to use an experimental ECS version (no offense to the creators, they are working hard and I do have high hopes for this project. I'll most certainly be experimenting with it) using the C# version, which is still fairly new.
Now, the fact that a small group of devs can make an indy project/proof of concept with Blender and Godot, or students can make a group portfolio that is viable - these things are AWESOME. Granted. But it still comes out of a quasi Frankenseinian lab as they have chosen to go with OOP instead of ECS, it seems, even though a path does seem laid out before them.

P.S.
