Yeah, we have taught "git-pull == git-fetch + git-merge" to our users, and "-s strategy" has been a way to specify _how_ the merge is done, and not about doing something that is not a merge. As you say, rebase is not doing a merge. But neither is "squash". "git-pull --rebase == git-fetch + git-rebase" might be simpler for end users to understand.
