I have found with individual dev environments that they cause many issues with outdated service versions. If you are going this route, I would use ScheduledScaler to shut down dev resources after hours.
I have found much more success with PR deployments - every PR gets deployed and wired up to a PR environment which has a full copy of dev and a copy of each PR which runs for 8 hours after the PR is built (I switch out the deploy for a job). Not every service maps well to this model, but it’s a good 95% solution in my experience.
