And, frankly, since all rebase does is re-write history, I fail to see how it's inherently productive, especially in the context of re-writing the history of previously shared commits. Yes, it is capable of cleaning up and reducing the number of commits you have to read through when looking at history, but that's such a rare event that optimizing for it (especially by normalizing dangerous commands like `git push -f`) seems, well, premature.
