Expand the reference to commits like so:
15a147e618 ("rebase: use @{upstream} if no upstream specified",
2011-02-09)
Also pay attention to the subject, in which it is unclear whose
argument "op_prep" is. Other than that, your rewrite is more
readable than the original.
The error_on_missing_default_upstream helper function learned to
take op_prep argument with 15a147e618 ("rebase: use @{upstream}
if no upstream specified", 2011-02-09), but as of 045fac5845
("i18n: git-parse-remote.sh: mark strings for translation",
2016-04-19), the argument no longer is used. Remove it.

Yes, with s/should/could/. I agree with you that we should leave it
as-is.
