Yes and no. I'm a git guy and a fan, but you can really, really mess things up. Usually, this is only when using features like force push; however, there are arguably legitimate use cases for that.

Buddy had a teammate that almost force pushed references from a slightly different repo. What a mess that could have been! I agree regarding the usefulness of reflog, and think the complaints about messing things up with rebase, reset, ect are overblown. It really isn't an issue for intermediate users.

Hence almost always. It’s not a common situation to delete commits from history, etc.

I don’t see the capability to force push as a negative. There are situations in which it’s necessary, like forcibly removing history (something I had to do just today).

Git gives you the ability to shoot yourself in the foot, so it’s up to the operator to not make a mistake like that without backing up the repo to a different place first, etc. Something something only a poor carpenter blames their tools.
