I asked the same question to myself before writing my first response
but it is way too late to ask it now.  I do support the spirit of
"--minimal", but not "--diff-algorithm=minimal" which may be an
ill-thought-out shorthand for "--diff-algorithm=default --minimal".

If you dig the list archive, I would imagine that you would find
that not an insignificant part of list participant back then thought
it was a good idea ;-)
