Because I believe that rebasing simple commit (1 parent) should be
nothing else but reduced version of rebasing any commit (N parents) at
N=1. The [RFC v2] being discussed provides exactly such a method.

OTOH, check what Phillip's version does at N=1. Is it the same as
"rebase simple commit" strategy you already happily use? If not, please
explain why it must be different.

That's because you try to figure out something that is not there in the
[RFC v2]. I suggest to forget everything you've already imagined and
just read the [RFC v2] proposal afresh. It should take about 10 minutes
or less to get it. Really.

Honestly, I don't believe it, sorry, but I'm willing to explain anything
you wish to be explained in _[RFC v2]_.

It's up to you, and it'd still be much better than what we have now, but
you will need to face the (I think unfortunate) consequences I just
summarized elsewhere in the thread.
