I am not an area expert for shell completion, but as a mere user,
unless the shell completion in a directory where I have README.txt
file, responds to
$ cat EAD<TAB>
and completes the request to
$ cat README.txt
I would find such a behaviour quite confusing.
On the other hand if
$ git log feat<TAB>
expands to
$ git log feature/issue-
then another <TAB> after that would offer 123-add-feature and 143-fix
as candidates, or instead of <TAB> if I type "123<TAB>" and get it
expanded to the full feature/issue-123-add-feature, then I wouldn't
find it confusing or unnatural.
