But he starts by saying that people are using git "wrong" (or suboptimally). If git fits my needs why should I worry about how this dude or Linus or the prime emporer of gitland thinks it should be used?

I think the author has a great point about the differences between how git was "designed" to be used as compared to how it ends up being used in orgs most often. But I also balk at being told I'm using an open source tool incorrectly as a general rule.

disclaimer - I really want prime emporer of gitland to be a proper honorific.
