No, I don't think it is *all* of the objection. Redundancy, for the
really short cases like the one you mention, is also an issue. And for
some people, the additional work needed to clean up the history before
pushing it, in some workflows.

Still, my take on the discussion so far is that the "social life" /
"irrelevant entries" examples were the main offenders. But people
interested in knowing the Emacs developers' thinking about the issue
should go and read the thread by themselves (obviously, I'm not
talking about you).
