If you do this, and find you want to go back to 3-4 commits ago, you need to dig around in the reflog for it.

Ah yeah, that's a totally fair critique. Everything in moderation, I suppose. :)

I must avoid those situations by making a new commit when I anticipate wanting to keep the reference to that point in work accessible.

I do dive into `reflog` maybe once or twice a quarter, but as far as I can remember, I only go there as an immediate reaction to tired-brain mistakes.
