It's not better, it's just a million times more usable. A Ferrari is nice, but for day-to-day stuff I'd rather use a Volvo :)

The trick to git is figuring out the subset of commands that make it work like a Volvo

Why do that if you could just use hg?

There is a Mercurial extension that allows you to use hg commands to interact with a git repo

My experience with hg-git has been that it is not always a great citizen with git repos and it can cause something of a mess. (This is a few years old now, because like the rest of the world I switched to git; it may have improved in the meantime.)
