I feel that I couldn't understand how the paper example provides clarity on the benefit of rebase.

To target this same subject I choose to focus the discussion towards communication. Rebase provides a means to work out your chapter before you tell anyone about it.

Hey Jesse, thanks for you reply!

I understand your point, I knew this metaphor wouldn't resonate with everyone. I tried to approach this subject from an "history of events" point of view, but also seeing commits as pages of a research paper.

Your metaphor sounds interesting, definitely gonna read your post!
