True but. There's a huge trade-off in time management.

I can spend hours OCDing over my git branch commit history.

-or-

I can spend those hours getting actual work done and squash at the end to clean up the disaster of commits I made along the way so I could easily roll back when needed.

it's also very easy to rewrite commit history in a few seconds.

If I'm rewriting history ... why not just squash?

But also, rewriting history only works if you haven't pushed code and are working as a solo developer.

It doesn't work when the team is working on a feature in a branch and we need to be pushing to run and test deployment via pipelines.

Weird, works fine in our team. Force with lease allows me to push again and the most common type of branch is per-dev and short lived.
