I agree with you 98%.
If we can make Git fast even on "absurd" cases without penalizing less
extreme and boring cases and/or maintainability of the code, we should
strive to do so. And I think the codepaths mentioned in this thread falls
into that category.
The remaining 2% is only to allow me to say that we reserve the right to
label cases "absurd" when it is extremely painful to support without
penalizing the code and performance of less extreme and boring cases ;-)
