Losing granularity, obviously, no? Of course it depends on how big branches get before they’re squash-merged, but squashing can make things harder to bisect, harder to track independent semantic changes that overlap, harder to read comments & history, harder to cherry-pick small fixes… lots of things. You don’t notice the downsides until you have to manage release branches or spelunk through the history to find bugs or figure out who wrote some line of code from long back.
