See, you’re not claiming that processes are important, you’re claiming that your process is important and

No, I'm claiming that processes are important.

It's important that stumbling upon a tangentially related bug or even linting issue does not block your work, forces you to fork your work, nor forces you to work around it. It's important that you can just post a small commit, continue with your work, and only handle that in the very end.

It's also important that you can work on your feature branch as you please, iterate on tests and fixes as you see fit, and leave cleanup commits to the very end so that your PR contributes a clean commit history instead of reflecting your iterations.

It's important that you can do any work you feel is important without having to constrain yourself to adapt your work to what you absolutely have to push your changes in a squraky clean state without iterations.

It's important that you can work on tasks as well as cleanup commits, and not be forced to push them all in a single PR because you are incapable of editing your local commit history.

It's not about my workflow. It's about the happy path of a very mundane experience as a professional software developer, specially in a team which relies on a repository's commit history to audit changes and pinpoint regressions.

This is stuff anyone who works in professional teams can tell you right away. Yet, you talk about this if it was a completely alien concept to you. Why is that? Is everyone around you wrong and your limited superficial experience dictates the norm?

Yet you talk about autism.

I work in professional teams, have been for decades. Noticing an unrelated bug doesn't block my workflow. I can fix it as part of the same pr, or just stash my changes and make a new branch for it. You sound like the people who demand everyone alphabetize thier import statements because they don't want to use the ide's search.
It's okay to have your own way and preferences, but they are yours, not everyone elses.
