> git-rebase is stupid because somebody doesn't know how to use it?

No, it's stupid because it's really common for people to fuck it up, and because the purported benefits (clean history) are not something which matters.

You've told me that it doesn't matter to you, but that hasn't changed my mind.

It's not a matter of objective truth, it's a preference.
