FWIW, I was mainly referring to making local branches presentable and/or just organizing things, not to rebase as a merge strategy. Don’t assume that rebase always means moving the local branch to the head of main, and don’t assume that rebase and merge are interchangeable. There are a lot of ways to rebase.
That's what I thought the discussion was about, locally 'clean' commits. In this context Rebase is so much more useful. I recently had to use the 'unto' option of the rebase command. 'unto' may show someone that they didn't really understand rebase though they could use the simple form of it, rebase -i x.
