I have to agree with Dave.

Moreover, I used to get regular complaints about the old "regular
rebase" process.  We switched to a "pull and merge" process for 2.6.25,
and in that period nearly all of the process-related complaints
disappeared for me.

To some degree this is a "pick your poison" issue, and for most people
rebasing seems like the deadlier poison.
