But if you don't squash, doesn't this render git bisect almost useless?
I think every commit that gets merged to main should be an atomic believed-to-work thing. Not only does this make bisect way more effective, but it's a much better narrative for others to read. You should write code to be as readable by others as possible, and your git history likewise.
Individual atomic working commits don't necessarily make a full feature. Most of the time I build features up in stages and each commit works on its own, even without completing the feature in question.
