I'm not saying this is a decision every dev has to make. I am complaining about having to make these decisions as a team or team lead. Having choices is only nice if there are important use cases where each choice is useful, and if the difference is big enough. Otherwise, the choices are just adding complexity and buyer's remorse.

For most unitary organizations, some of the options that git gives you make no sense at all. That doesn't mean git should change, it means that it's not a great tool for unitary organizations.

Note that some of the choices (e.g. stash vs commit) are choices that each dev has to make individually, and some are pure incidental complexity.
