All of the above is understandable, but ...

... I am not sure what the first half of this sentence is saying.
Do you mean something like:
The function takes "enum object_type" and pretends that it could
stream trees and commits, if we wanted to interoperate with
multiple hash algorithms, there are a lot more information than
just the contents and object type needed. A tree object needs
"compatibility hash" (i.e. the hash computed for the other hash
functions) for objects the tree contains, a commit object
likewise needs "compatibility hash" for its tree and its parent
commits. IOW, the existing interface into the functions this
patch touches is way too narrow to be useful for object types
other than blobs.
perhaps? I agree with the conclusion that the functions on the
callchain involved in the bulk-checkin feature can safely be
limited to handle blobs in the current code (and I have my reasons
to think why it is not regressing the interface), but it makes me
feel uneasy that I am not quite sure what your reasoning is.

I do not know if vger is dropping your messages, but I haven't seen
this on https://lore.kernel.org/git/ archive, so I'll quote from the
message I am responding to everything without omitting anything, to
let others who may find out about this patch via my response.
Thanks.
